The funny part is.. Chevy, Ford, Dodge, Kenworth, etc all have the same type of system to burn off the particulates in the muffler (DPF). So I don't know what Ford has done wrong... Yea the tailpipes on all of them get VERY hot. Way too hot to put your hand next to the tailpipe when it's going through it's regeneration process. But the others definitely aren't doing that.

On the Kenworths they added a switch that the driver can manually shut it off if he's in a bad area, and can flip it back on while he's cruising down the freeway again. But he can't put it off too long, because it will go into limp mode if he clogs up the DPF. Most of them will put it off as long as possible, because it just uses that much more fuel.
