    This is an old thread Krooser hasn't posted in years. The quick answer to your question - changing filters periodically and adding make up oil when doing that in conjunction with an oil sample regimen, and bypass filtration it is feasible to not change the oil in 100,000 miles or more. You're always adding new oil replenishing additives. It's synthetic oil. Samples say it is good. Go for it right?

    Wish I had seen this thread years ago. Cummins quoted me starting at $25,500 to do my 06 ISX. I'm thinking about getting a 95 Freightshaker with a 3406e. Any thoughts. I just can't see put 25,000 into a 06 Volvo. Would rather get something built better

    I've had my truck at a shop for a month and I go up there today and they tell me they can't work on it because it's going to take too much time when they told me it would be ready today. I'm still seeing red.

    I know this is an old post but I have a c15 Acert that’s leaking coolant in the oil what do you guys think the problem could be? Also how much would it be to replace the head gasket? Do an inframe ?
