    Has anyone owned one, and what about the reliability of the truck? I'm looking at a 2014 with a Cummins 450, 13 spd. 3.55 rears, and 310k on the clock. Dealer said that most of all the NOX sensor have been replaced. They're asking anywhere from high 50's to mid 60's depending on mileage. Thanks.

    Look on truckpaper and see what similar vehicle are going for. The price quoted sounds reasonable to me.

    Thanks, that's where I saw them on truck paper. McCoy's Freightliner in Portland Oregon. Just curious about the NOX sensor, and 014 Cummins engine's.

    I would be more curious as to why they replaced the sensors, was it due to sensor failure or another problem that caused the sensors to fail? I have a '12 ISX and the only engine/emissions realted issue I have on a regular basis is DPF, and I am able to nurse it with static regens every 1200 - 1500 miles but it needs a new DOC/DPF; this one has 600K on it.

    They told me that several of them were getting the NOX replaced, I also asked about the DOC/ DPF but nothing about those, I suspect that they are dew since the truck's didn't have a APU.

    It's likely. If you have questions about cummins or any engine mfg actually, rawze site is good, he can be a little rough around the edges sometimes, but I'm there for info not to embelish my inner snowflake.
