    Yea...thats what I have now...but...KW is coming out with the DD13 instead of the DD15...claiming much better fuel MPG. Just trying to find out if anyone is driving one of these.

    DD13 and DD15 are Detroit Motors, can't get one in a Paccar product since, about 04, UNLESS you are talking about a Detroit S60 in a Glider?

    Are you sure you don't mean Cummins ISX 15 and ISX12?

    Thanks for saying tactfully what I was thinking. Is there some confusion here with the MX13 Paccar engine perhaps?

    I would hope he knew the difference. Else that boat load may turn into the Titanic.

    There is a great post in the Swift section of a driver trying to find out what truck he is driving. So yes, anything is possible.
