<p>[QUOTE="Oram, post: 11600752, member: 79616"]Midwest Trucker, may I ask a few questions about your spec? Have you considered the LED headlights, disc breaks all around, smart torque for the X15? Why did you go with 232" wheelbase? It seems you went with the overdrive tranny. Is that right? What is your intended cruising speed and RPM with the 2.79 ratio? Have you considered more aggressive specs, like direct drive and tag axle? </p><p>I would appreciate for your inputs as you are more experienced than me. I really specced only one truck. My first one was a go lucky choice as totally new was to the industry. And now I planning the third and last. Although not in hurry, but want to be prepared just in case. And definitely pull the plug if Cummins introduce the new engine with the cylinder deactivation. I can not afford to be the guinea pig.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
