X-15 Cummins thread

389,x15 565/2050,18 speed,3.55,low leaf,11r24.5 on Pete ovals,36 inch bunk,legendary brown paint with hot fudge brown frame,platinum interior with rosewood dash and full gauge package,leather seats,frame mounted tool boxes,hogebuilt 30” quarter fenders,265 wheelbase and lots of other little touches he does that Fitzgerald didn’t spec for 12k less money. Tulsa is 600 miles away from me but for 12k that ain’t far at all to drive lol.

 

No - a dd15 in a Cascadia with a dt12 direct. Nothing really special for specs.

 

Thanks. I love the legendary colors also. Truck won’t be built till first of June and it’s killing me. I can’t wait till it’s here!

 

I've been asking everyone I see with an X15 how they like it, and so far this thread was the only negative feedback I've heard.
The most one guy had was 87K on his, and he said he's had 0 issues.

 

Too bad we can’t get a 389 with a DD15.

 

So the first one (Demo unit) in a 2018 LT, started pouring white smoke and lights like crazy pulling Kicking Horse Hill, just after golden. The dealer came and got it, and we never seen it again (Company took possession of the X15 LT's shortly after).

Those X15's LT's bankrupted the company I was working for, so I just switched to an LTL company this past week. Got assigned a REALLY NICE 2019 LT with A26. First #### load, lost the bunk heater and rear EPU/HVAC system first night in the truck. Then around Moose Jaw (3800kms on the clock) it lights up like an Xmas tree. So I pullover and call breakdown, they do remote diagnostics, tell me I can finish the run to Calgary and drop at the dealer Good Friday. Just got off the phone with them, truck needs 6 injectors, a wiring harness, new EPU/Bunk heater and tons of other #### 4300kms.....FML

International is a brand, I would recommend TOO ####ING NO ONE!!!!!!

 

If you don't mind sharing how much do Peterbilt Steve's 389 cost? Or a ball park figure would be appreciated. I've watched a lot of his YouTube videos, nice trucks for sure.
