You would be amazed at the people around here that owned S60’s with good luck and went out and got a newer DD15/13 thinking they were getting the same engine. Only to find out Detroit got infected with European stupidity.

“Built like a Mack truck” is now followed up with laughter thanks to the same infection.
Or maybe because the trucks are all 15+ year old fleet trucks? They also have iron bodies that rust away. I did once a year oil changes on my old d12 and on the oil sample everything was low single digits except for iron would be in the teens. I havent heard any other engine coming close to that.

Also if its in a mack its not a d12
