    That might be a 25,000 dollar tractor you say you have a stack or stacks that can go back on that tractor? Why were they taken off?

    It could be a 30,000 dollar tractor if the interior is in good order along with the drivers position what with the dashes, switches, wiring condition, fuse box etc.

    That is only my opinion anyhow. 25 to 30. Im not in a position to be buying tractors.

    So did your mileage improve with the stage 1 ? My last fill up was 7.3 but usually I'm at 7. And been as low as 6.5. But I'm running a the 550 BrakeSaver file with 58's injectors. I have been thinking to drop the 5DS (601hp) like I had before. That was so much fun to drive. It was just driving a pick up truck. It would get up and go anywhere. But on the sniffer test, I was at 40%. I think with this R-50 DPF, it's big enough to handle it. Now that I had the transmission rebuilt and new clutch, I'm tempted to download it.
