Where is everyone #5

Once at 989000 miles. And a two repairs. That i did. Not some $150 hr shop. Now if your trying to compare mine to yours there is no comparison at all. Mine is built at a highly modifyed setup that works well. I own +operate +work on mine. I don't just call a number !

 

Fedex freight ran ISX and now X15 economies and the majority run their entire life without any internal engine work at all.

 

Listened to a Detroit rep brag the DD15 should go 600k before rebuild.

 

I’m not trying to compare anything to anything, I’m just saying that to pretend that old engines were perfect and new ones are junk is just not accurate.

 

Let’s also not pretend that just because I’m a company driver that I haven’t had grease under my fingernails. I grew up poor on a farm with junk equipment, I know exactly what it takes to keep things running. I’m not a trucking school graduate that pretends. I’m a company driver because I chose to be, but lets not start throwing insults around because you know nothing about me.

 

Didn't say perfect, just more reliable compared to the epa ones. We can agree to disagree. We are from two completely different world's even though we are in the same profession.

 

I like the history and really enjoy the stories. Let's my mind wander back to a simpler time. Keep 'em coming!!

 

Looks like a highly modified Gremlin

 

And like wise.
