    Does anyone have an X15 yet?

    I read they are supposed to go 6 years without DPF maintenance.

    Someone told me 80K between PM's?????????????LOL

    Anyone?

    You'll have to ask an owner of a 2018 Freightliner Cascadia-the X-15 made its debut in that truck

    So far every single "New" Cascadia I have seen spec'd is using the DD15 with the DD12 auto trans behind it. It will be a while before Cummins gets their foot in the door at least at Freightliner.
    Might be a great engine. I will let someone else do the testing for about 10 years before I decide. I love my 2000 series 60, but it was out for 12 years before I was convinced.

    Yea last year they had two brand new identical Cascadia's, identical in every respect, except the one with the 500 HP ISX was $25K cheaper.

    I was going "Can that motor really be that inferior? "

    I'd love a Pete, but I can't take the chance on something that won't hold up or is very expensive to maintain.
    Some of these guys consider cam shafts maintenance!?!?!

    Need something to hammer nails with.

    Just way too many negative comments and feedback on ISX.

    I hope the X is better.
