Pickup trucks are only as powerful as their engines, and these two are, without a doubt, the kings. Even though the 6.7 Powerstroke and 6.7 Cummins engines are different, they are both powerful in their own right. How powerful each is depends on your needs.

When learning about components that help vehicles run more efficiently and safely, knowing about Exhaust Throttle Valves is crucial. An Exhaust Throttle Valve is a part of the engine that controls how exhaust gases flow out of the engine. It helps reduce pollution by making the engine work hard so it will warm up the aftertreatment system faster. It can also be used as an engine brake by creating resistance inside the engine.
