There is no weep hole in this compartment. You can see the traces of DEF everywhere. Now look at the bottom left. Thats where the plug is. So the compartment starts filling with DEF and its only outlet is the wiring harness. Its literally pressurizing the DEF into the harness.

But wait, theres more.

After the DEF enters the harness what is going to stop it? So now the DEF harness - or whatever it is called - is ruined but the DEF keeps going to the main harness contaminating and destroying it as well. At this point a simple sensor failure has caused $10,000 in damage!

But wait, theres more.

It didnt happen in this case but the DEF can even make its way into the ACM. My guess is if that happened it would be an additional $5,000.

Someone needs to redesign and recall this system. It has a cascade of engineering flaws that lead to cascading failures.

Scania got fed up with DEF problems using Bosch hardware, they designed their own. (With Cummins ?) Not much problems after that.

I think there was 140 of them made.
Friend of mine sent me this a few days ago. Took a little over 2 years to rebuild. Claims it’s the 2nd one ever built.
Runs from Plainview Tx to somewhere in Arizona.
Love how they painted the walking floor to match.

While the cab likely says B model that would technically be the earlier L model hoods as they don’t have the wide grill of the B models.

Dezerland i think? Took a ride over, was supposed to be an auto meuseum there. Saw some cars inside through the glass but it wasnt open. Place loomed pretty rough for such a busy area. Had a movie theatre and a bass pro shop still functioning. Not much else

I’d love to get my hands on one of them. Definitely my favorite style of standup sleeper.

I actually had to go to work and my truck said forget it as I was leaving the house, so to Arizona I went in the other one.

I really like the pictures.

That rig is very sharp, imo.

Had an Aerodyne originally. He put the 42” on and did a Unibilt opening.

I was contemplating the same thing. But I dunno I do like my aerodyne.

Aero 1's just look right on those trucks. I usually don't care for stand ups

I’m a flat top fan typically, but the Aerodyne/Aero 1 is by far my favorite style of standup sleeper.

Broken frame?
