DUAL FUEL TANK SELECTOR CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED) If your vehicle is equipped with dual fuel tanks, you will have a selector control, located to the right of the steering wheel, which allows you to draw fuel from either tank. Your fuel gauge and the DTE (distance to empty) will display the amount of fuel in the currently selected tank. ENGINE-EXHAUST BRAKING This feature increases engine braking at higher engine speeds to provide better grade descent control with less brake and transmission wear and tear. This feature is integrated with the tow/haul mode feature. When tow/haul mode is switched on, the engine-exhaust braking feature will also be active.
