    Same here with Husqvarna - saw, trimmer, ride on, all lasted well.

    A ‘piperack spool ‘ - whatever that is. Tulsa to WV - from a shipper that doesn’t want to be bothered with pesky phone calls peppered with stupid questions like -

    • Dimensions?
    • Need dunnage?
    • Chains or straps?
    • Tarp?
    • What time to load?
    • This address - or half way across town?

    Performance X15 most likely than I’d imagine...


    Hope you have better luck with it than I’ve had with multiple ISX motors.

    That’s how my final delivery is looking it seems... it’s a glass partial. And if glass loads have taught me anything thus far it’s a small business with no room nor understanding of “semi truck with sleeper.”

    Do I park on a four lane and make them deal with it? Do I back in and block your customers? Do I pull in and have room in the parking lot to turn around? Questions, questions. Fortunately no one returned my phone calls on Thursday or Friday so it’s my problem not theirs, yay!

    At least you're not hanging out down here with me. This basement gets kinda musty sometimes.

    What specs would you change with an emissions truck?

    Well frame length, I have to account for the stupid DPF crap. Kenworth does offer a vertical DPF behind the cab.

    I'm guessing 605 in emissions trim is like a 500 in mechanical?

    I’ve heard great things about them... everyone says they finally got it right with the X15...

    But I don’t know of too many that are beyond 350-450k in mileage and that is exactly where my Cummins falls apart...
