    I had a brand new V8 back in the day and all I can remember hearing was my money hitting the floor at the Mack shop. Sure ran good when it was together. Ah what the hell, I never could stand prosperity anyway.

    Though I have no interest in buying one, the new DD15 I heard in a truck the other day sounded good. Could hardly hear it.

    Well, as far as diesel engines go, I am more for the sound of a V-16 645 EMD locomotive engine.
