    According to international they are comparable. So I wouldn't say apples to oranges.

    Heavyd would you mind checking my vin? I work for a company that likes to keep secrets while I make them money. I just got into this 09 pro star with the Cummins from a shakers with the Detroit and I'm very impressed with the pulling power. One issue I had es a engine warn light and it seems that I lost about 90% of my turbo boost for about 20 mules then it came back all of a sudden. Any ideas? Vin is, 3HSCUAPR8AN209855. Thanks in advance for any input.

    I ran your vin and I am getting an "invalid" chassis, must have something mixed up there. All I need is the last 8 numbers/letters of your vin. Check your vin again and I will look it up for you!

    Our company just got two new prostars with the max force 13s in them. I know one of the drivers very well and was asking him about it. He finally got to put a load behind it and is impressed with the power so far. We are running on 10% permits now which puts us at around 105,500 gross weight. He says his new truck pulles better then his old Volvo that had the D13 in it.

    I am curious about spending a couple days in one just to see how they pull. Not that I want a Prostar but I would not mind a Lonestar. If it pulled better then my MBN c15 and got better milage then I am all for driving it as long as it is not a Prostar.
