There's less and less of the old iron left every year. It doesn't just wear out, but also gets wrecked or sat in a field for decades to rot. I'm just happy to drive somebody else's truck and not worry about fuel costs or any of that. Just speaking from experience with the 3406e that it's not great on fuel. Though that could be that I was always driving local and doing local work with 98,000 lbs on my back.
soon to be DEF shortages

Give me a 60 series, N14, C15, or 3406 any day, all day over these newer engines. They may not be the most economical, but they are reliable and simple to work on.

2022 is the first full summer post- lockdown and nobody is staying home. High gas prices?. You wouldn't think so with the amount of people burning it for fun.Trucker61016, RubyEagle, Rideandrepair and 1 other person Thank this. -
