Opinions on Mack CXU613

The auto 12 gets the job done, its not a manual (which i stated works better going up and down hills) but the auto 12 hasn't let me down yet.

 

No problem brother. I'm here to help. I'm pretty sure you're going to like the ride quality of these new age macks substantially more the the 90 era ma ks

 

I wouldn't be scared of it, if it seems well cared for. Ours has almost 800K on the clock does not burn a drop of oil. I have had to replace the injectors and cups, that is a known issue on those trucks and a costly one. Typical emissions issues, other than that I'm happy with it.

 

Unfortunately, I had Mack pull the valve cover to run the overhead and they said it needed a new cam and rockers so I'm buying a 579 Pete now.

I wish the Mack would've worked out though. I kinda liked it.

Thank you for your reply.

 

2014 Mack CXU613 Any have experience issues with this type of truck and need advices before buying it

 

Interested to see if anyone has some updated experiences with the CXU13s. I’ve been looking at a couple 2017s with 445-505 mp8s and mdrive 12 speeds. 400-600k miles depending on the truck. Seem to be reasonably priced so I’m curious of their track record compared to the other brands on the road.

 

When I got hired on with Sun Coast Resources back in the fall of 2013, I was assigned a Mack daycab, if I recall it was a ‘Vision Cab’(?), had the Mack red engine, with a Fuller Road Ranger, was a bit of a dog off the line when fully loaded, but rode nice, kinda floated along. Pre-Def, pre-regen which was really nice.
