Why do so many Americans hate European trucks?

I watched bits of it, but it was broadcasted live

 

At 5200 miles / 400 hours?
It was probably still on the oil that was put in the engine at the factory.

If not, @spsauerland posted what oil he uses not too long ago, and it is not cheap mineral oil.

 

Top speed? Able to respond quickly 100 miles away? No. It's a crane.

 

This is correct, bodybuilder and truck salesman should advice customer to stay away from 8x2 for this job.
I have done that already once

 

And it is just as unlikely that 10W-30 oil caused the problem. However, a blocked oil line (for whatever reason) may have caused this problem.

 

I agree, but we both don't know why this truck was chosen anyway.

 

Luckily, not our engine/truck. Seen it while dropping a part for warranty return @ dealer. Actually, it was a full maintenance lease sleeper truck. Had the 510/1850 MX. Idle time on it was super high. Said they have seen an increase in engine failures lately and red oval guys said the same when dropping MX-13 off with a failed turbocharger (turbo shaft excessive play, compressor wheel damaged from housing contact), so I would guess a bulletin or campaign will be happening in the future.
Truck did have codes for misfire, torque contribution, injector driver fault all on #6.
Here is the trip recorder showing the excessive idle time.

 

Probably was speced by a desk jockey with Google experience vs. real world experience. Sounds familiar.
