What the hell makes you think I haven't worked other jobs in my life? I've been around the continent fixing other people's F*ups too. and what's with this passive aggressive BS... evidently any humor is lost here.
If V8 diesels were so great, I think you'd see them in big rigs
Wasn't Cat out of the big truck game for 3 or 4 years after the tier 3 stuff?
I remember a friend that said they couldn't buy a new truck with a 500 hp Cat the year they were upgrading trucks.No, they just dropped the 3408, kept the 3406C and then developed the Acert C series. Detroit's Series 60 picked up a lot of the 12L/400-450 HP market share but Cat held onto the high HP market. I really like my 625 HP C15 in the T800 with an 18 speed and a low rear end ratio for hauling my gear in the mountains.
Was it a Mack? Mercedes bought Mack and Detroit Diesel a few years ago and now you only have the option of Merc or Detroit engines.I remember a friend that said they couldn't buy a new truck with a 500 hp Cat the year they were upgrading trucks.
If you want a penis extension that rattles and clanks its way everywhere, buy a Cummins motor. Want a truck that's comfortable and won't be an annoyance if you spend hours upon hours in it every day? That's why the 6.7 is great. And, you know, it's a Ford, which means everything outside the motor will actually hold up
Peterbilt from what I remember.Was it a Mack? Mercedes bought Mack and Detroit Diesel a few years ago and now you only have the option of Merc or Detroit engines.

I know Cat and International are partners on some engines now.
Part of the reason I can't see myself ever buying a new vehicle! I can start and run my truck with no battery for as long as I want... it's kinda nice knowing you can when you're out in the bush and your alternator/battery packs it in
Oh, and Ford's 6.0 EGR cooler was soooo much better an idea
