Because it makes me good money.
Which in trucking is still what it is about?
BTW last i hearded ,there are no plans for an MX 15liter. -
Thanks for pointing that out BTW. It just shows that the thinking behind the new Paccar Power Plant Line is based on Euro thinking, NOT American thinking.
And again, If you cant understand or apprecaite the difference between a 13 liter motor and a 15 liter motor, well I really dont want to get into it with you but I will
Bigger is better.
That is my answer.
The DD15 has a 15 liter torque curve and a 13 liter MPG. Is that better ? Does that explain it for you? That is why you want a DD15 or a MX15, but like you said , you are not going to get it because it isnt in the plan. Kind of like getting used to a really hot, yet flat chested gal. Got to go with what you can get, right?
LOL
God I hope the rest of you get me here. -
I think off the MX as a joint venture.
There are features on the MX which show the USA influence.
Paccar is now a worldplayer.
Don't forget that implants (which a lot off those bigger sizes have) also make for a loss off feeling in that region.
But if bigger makes you feel better.............go for it!
Enjoy! -
Sorry you should check your facts. I'm registered for 99,000lbs in 5 states and 107,000lbs in 1 state. Over 600 miles from one end to the other. I've even heard of guys loading over those limits. I want a 15L 550hp plus engine, to bad no one makes one anymore for the US market. -
So how long have you worked for Paccar anyway?
So you are a driver?????? and you are talking about Paccar influences from the USA via your perspective over the pond!
Well touche my good man! touche!
Scania man Thanks this. -
Go with the DD15 bro. At least there are more service centers for Merceded/DD than Volvo.
Or you could go fo the new player ................Mr DAF
your choice..so give the MX fanboy some free customer insight and let him know how important service is on an engine YOU EXPECT to grenade.
-
Hence the 80 000lbs.
I know that not all states are on that weight.Cat sdp Thanks this. -
Its ok. You can go ahead and talk about your REAL issues here....you are among friends...so go ahead talk about how you live with smaller when you really want bigger...its ok go ahead....let it out

Look dude.
A 12.9 Liter motor is a light duty regional duty engine here in the USA. I don't care what you do with your engines or livestock over there.
Here, a 12.9 Liter motor is a light duty regional motor. Dont try to dispute that with me cuz I just might get out some Euro literature which fleshes out this fact for you,
Glad you make due over there with what you got. you guys deal with socialism and communism and radical Muslims running your once proud countries. good for you.
Over here we still have about 4 months of real freedom and democracy left. After that, I will be calling you and asking you how do deal with a 12.9 liter motor!!
