Been doing cars since Sept 1.
Pulled a crude tanker for 2 months prior to that. I hated it, but it was a job.
Cost difference C15 v ISX

Detroits are the main reason there is more than one lane on the highway, so the rest of can pass. I would put my N-14 up against anything on the road for fuel mileage -
I am currently running a 2004 c15 cat bridge motor and i have an oppertunity to trade it for a 2006 peterbilt with a 565 isx in it does any one have any info on fuel milage with these motors i am currently pulling super b trains in b.c canada with a weight of 62000 kg the bridge motor pulls alright could be better but i am burning 60 liters of fuel more than the other trucks i haul with 2003 c15 cat i am really leaning towards the 2006 pete with the isx any info would be great

Like I said many times before.
The truck in my profile pics that I wrecked had a 525 Cummins in it. Fresh overhaul. (less than 200,000 miles on it)
The replacement truck had a 500 CAT with over 800,000 miles on it. Trans, rear ends, tires etc specs were all the same.
Same brand, same model, one was a 99 other was 00.
The CAT would get up and leave the cummins powered truck far behind pulling the same load. -
