Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

I already concluded that it has so many axles to get a very low axle load. Obviously that is for legal reasons, but technically the truck could have far less axles.

 

I looked @ your numbers over and I am guessing your MX-11 doesn't have a centrifuge oil filter. Your soot level is quite a bit higher than any I see with our MX-13. 0.1 or lower is what I see. With our other trucks, as I see increase of soot load, so does the wear metals and viscosity. I would run same drain as last time and see if wear metals stabilize then maybe bump up distance.

 

Thank you Captain Obvious.

 

Or Captain DH!

 

We had a discussion about the low axle loads in Michigan on this forum, and the resulting axle orgy on trucks.

 

Fantasy vs reality

 

Hey Amodel, are you guys having a hard time getting away from winter as well? Wet and cool here, and still getting occasional snow storms.
