Queenslander, it's a thing they all use nowadays....it's called marketing, LOL.
I'm in the trucking industry and it's just like every year with the truck manufacturers and these new emission motors:
Every year they say "our new aerodynamic truck gets 3 to 5 % better fuel economy."
Our new motor gets 3 to 5 % better fuel economy. Next year it's.....you guessed it! Our motor gets 3 to 5 % better fuel economy!
Geez, these new trucks should be getting 25 MPG now, LOL.
Same with every year the talk about how "smart" these new electronics are. "We can just plug in and they tell us everything that is wrong" or "we can read fault codes over the air with telematics."
Well then how come they can never get my emission motors fixed every week they are in the shop??? LOL
