    I think Navistar's decision to add a 15 liter means the MaxxForce13 is not going to work out as they had hoped. It simply doesn't have the diplacement you need to run reliably and efficiently for 1,000,000 miles.

    Cummins' decision to switch to SCR must have really caught Navistar off guard or else they would have seen this coming earlier.

    wow.

    The c-12's were the best thing for smaller engines out here.

    i have seen them on 100+ tonne roadtrain work, which is amongst the harshest in the world.. dont think thats a failure.......

    Remember when 50% of the trucks on the road smoked just like this? And forget about a Maxidyne with a 5 or 6 speed...... I guess we destroyed the environment. Who knew? :dontknow: And yet, life goes on......
