Buck, that's not necessarily so. My '01 Cummins is on the louder side with factory exhaust and everything. But an '04 is far quieter. I'm not sure whether or not my '01 is a Series 2 Cummins, and whether or not '04's are Series 3. I sure lost track. Mine has 32 valves, but older ones have 24 valves. It goes on and on, and every year there are more restrictions on noise off of the assembly lines, mostly because anything that is not an obvious car is now deemed/termed an "SUV", and whith the popularity of "SUV's", so are the attacks on them, and fluffing them out so that they won't hurt Yugo's, Honda's battery whatchamacallit, and so on. Not saying that loud diesels are a good thing either, but today's diesels are much quieter that a couple of years ago. And quiet KW's, etc? Them too, quieter than a few years ago. As for the mating call thing, didn't you say that it was a "husband and wife" team that spent 2 hours or so in your sister's store? You just tell sis to stay away from their mating call, it can bring no good to her - Ha ha ha. Take care Buck, and keep in mind that it is not only good to have 6 tractors per acre, it's just as good to have one turbo for every cylinder on that diesel under your hood, at least one per cylinder.
