Apologizes if this has been addressed already. I searched for the subject and found nothing.
To the guys here who have the Ford 6.7 how is the factory engine brake? It's my understanding that to engage it you need to be in tow/haul and simply depress the brake, perhaps with a bit of force. I have tried to see if I could get it to engage running bobtail and it's hard to tell. I use the one in my work truck all the time (provided conditions are not slippery) and I love it. Part of the reason I went diesel over gas was for the engine brake. BD Diesel has an aftermarket one that does something to the veins in the turbo but I don't want to drop the coin on it if the factory one is satisfactory. Let me know. Thank you
