EITHER TRUCK IS A GAMBLE BUT I WOULD TAKE THE CUMMINS.
Prom Night Dumpster Baby Thanks this. -
All you need is one of these GMC cabovers like I used to drive for Safeway back in the early 90's-got the job done!
I only went from Phx to Tucson to Nogales & back to Phx. You might want something a little more comfy I'll bet.OLDSKOOLERnWV, BoxCarKidd and blairandgretchen Thank this. -

Take the Pete. The extra fuel in the tanks will tide you over.
Come to think of it not very much fuel in that pete. 240 gal? KW even less.
Fuel is life during winter. In summer possibly able to feed thirsty reefer in a pinch. -
OLDSKOOLERnWV, blairandgretchen, Ruthless and 1 other person Thank this.

What company did the KW come from? Those are some really small fuel tanks. I'd take the ISX
-
100 gallons total? You gna have to fill up every 400 miles with that tank
KriegHund Thanks this. -

Check out the thread by @Guntoter about the class action lawsuit on the Paccar engine.
Last entry I read was that he found someone to reflash his ECM to make his Paccar engine run better-I would read up on it first before purchase.
