So I purchased this 2020 t680 kenworth that had 446k miles on it 18k hours ix15 cummins anniversary addition. I've ran it for only 2 months and I get a derate nearly every week or every 2 weeks. I've already invested $15k so far in to the repairs and 9 different kenworth dealers and 4 independant dealers and after replacing the egr valve which was the last derate code ALL because of the dpf. Again. 2 days later derating and I drive nights and stay in the middle us area. I dont touch the coasts no more. Not worth the head ache for me. Should I delete it. I've been running across quite a bit of O/O who have there's deleted and have 0 complaints.
Delete it or now?

We’re not permitted to talk about deletes but, yes, do it!!
austinmike and DeathByCheetos Thank this. -
Lots of idiots with hack job tunes doing that sort of thing so beware.
austinmike, Big Road Skateboard and D.Tibbitt Thank this. -
The hours / miles comparison wasn’t a concern? Not surprised the emission system is shot with a 24mph average.

Best of luck boss was just curious... -
Whow, that truck sure idled a lot. Even with 9000 hours (1/2) the idle time would have been more reasonable on the motor.
