Detroit series 60, cummins n14 and isx, CAT pre emissions c15 and 3406e
I'm not sure of many other manufacturers. You can get any of the above in a glider.
Why is Kenworth using Paccar if their reputation is so bad?

Not true, depends on MODEL of Glider you are looking at, for instance, Freightliner Argosy, used to be able to get all you listed PLUS ISM, now, ONLY S60 and ISX.
Also not just Argosy issue, look into the short nose Glider trucks, VERY few options.
New Cascadia Glider, no cat, ISX/S60 only.
Now, if you are looking at JUST the old Coronado/120 Columbia, than that may be the case.DrtyDiesel Thanks this. -
KANSAS TRANSIT Thanks this.

No issues, and the Cascadia IS suppose to have Cat available at some point, but I have not seen one yet, I haven't heard if Kustom Truck has harness complete yet, they are on here, maybe they will chime in.DrtyDiesel Thanks this. -
Anyway, I'll miss our KW'S but I won't miss those paccar engines hahaKANSAS TRANSIT Thanks this. -
Volvo and Scania. Daf used to make these pokey little cars with a weird auto called an implimatic. So who knows how their big truck engines engines will hold up in the futue.Lucar Thanks this. -
dont forget scanias strange moves , first egr engines had lot of problems, volvo now get 2 vgt turbos , i guess this would cost 8000 to exchange ..... -
Ran a 2012 Pete with a Paccar engine. Engine was actually pretty decent, just had problems with that darned DEF system. And your gonna have problems with that system no matter WHAT engine you use.
Vampire, Shawn benton and DrtyDiesel Thank this. -
So the most sold is the Paccar engine.
Second is Volvo.
It should be know that up to '14 they(all brands) were all fixed turbo and SCR only.(there were exemptions,those had EGR engines but results were bad compared to SCR only engines so all brands stopped making EGR only engines)
The 2 brands that have the least fans in the USA.Lucar and DrtyDiesel Thank this. -
my paccar was constantly in the shop with def issues
the DD15 not yet
and dirty diesel you aint driving the MB 12 speed autoshift if you hate it
