Anthony Bruneni and Chris Ehmke are joined by Julian Filipovic of PTL to discuss what hes heard after his recent experience at an emissions conference in San Diego. With the amount of talk we see on forums, Facebook, and other online platforms, we figured it'd be a good time to touch on the future of emissions with medium duty diesel trucks. Julian discusses what he learned from the conference, how Performance Test Labs (PTL) offers aftermarket diesel products and opportunity to get pre-certification testing (CARB EO Pipeline) for their parts, and discusses much more with the guys in regards to the inductry. Thanks for stopping by Julian!

We love diesel. Not just medium duty trucks, that's why we brought in Ben Evers of Farm Focused and Calibrated Power to discuss Spring planting and custom tuning for ag equipment!

Ben breaks down how tight planting windows, long days, and heavy workloads push tractors and equipment to their limits, and where factory calibrations often leave performance on the table. We get into how custom tuning can improve throttle response, usable power, and fuel efficiency, helping farmers cover more ground without adding unnecessary stress to their machines.

We also touch on some of the misconceptions around tuning in the agriculture space, how it differs from the diesel truck world, and why more farmers are starting to look at performance solutions as a tool, not a risk.

If you've ever wondered how diesel performance translates outside of pickups and into the field, this episode gives you a real-world look at how tuning is helping keep farms running efficiently when it matters most.

Anthony Bruneni and Chris Ehmke sit down to talk about weighing out what you look for when purchasing a new diesel truck. The thing we notice is despite the amount of sh*t talking each brand loyalist does, each the Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke are all well made trucks. It really comes down to what you plan to do with the truck. Is it your daily driver? Is it your tow pig? Are you looking to wrench on it? Drag strip? It comes down to quite a few factors and the boys discuss their opinions on the newer models especially when shopping around.
