    CANBUS is great..... in theory. In reality it is a PITA.

    a 1999 might have been a better choice because in 2 years E logs will be required in 2000 and newer trucks.

    I started a thread with this link but thought I would post it here too. This is a very real issue for Paccar. The Federal Government has several investigations into dishonest business practices and EPA has ordered Paccar to stop building MX-13 engines immediately. Paccar has filed an injunction so they can build these engines until they get their day in court but they more than likely will be paying to re-power trucks purchased before the suit (August 2015). If you buy one AFTER August, you are on your own... Good luck with your boat anchor. http://www.qulegal.com/15-08-28-17-PACCAR-Amended-Complaint.pdf

    Hi Joe. It's a Paccar...not Cummins. Not sure which MX number, but an MX. The truck is a 2011 if that helps you on the number.
