    Performance or Efficiency? Read a lot of threads on here about the Efficiency being pretty gutless even when rated at its max. Heard they have head gasket issues due to running a high compression ratio than the Performance.

    the 605 and one of the lesser powered models is listed as “productivity” I am curious as to the differentiation?
    * Excuse me it was actually more than one of the lesser horsepower models

    The Reason I got 1850 Torque was because sales guy said gas mileage would be better than the 2050 …. Is there any truth to that?

    I enjoy my time diving one no real problem for me ran it hard and Long but did fine. It did run a little hotter then I'm use to and have to add oil ever now and again. My company did have one where the wire harness caught on fire though it was a 18

    1850 here. 18spd 4.10 rear. Hauls 80k everywhere thru Las Vegas gets an average 5.0-5.2 gpm. For a local dump truck I’ll take it. She’s not much on the road speed area that I’d like her to be, but she moves her weight with ease.
