Remember the coast to coast run they made when promoting the ISX? The trailer behind the truck was packed full of spare parts  |
Phuck common rail. At least cummins'. Up to the 871s tended to be fairly descent with the fuel system. The 2250s and up are garbage. Unreliable and stupid expensive.

Are you all hearing anything about the X15's yet? I have 4 in service here, and they've all thrown codes for the fuel rail pressure being low on ~5000 mile fuel filters

In this case do you take this truck back to the yard for a "parts" truck or does it just get hauled to the scrap yard? Is there anything usable left on this thing?!

Insurance company hasn’t had much experience with “new” parts obviously. Lol. This one survived a crash it’s a good one!

I not only work on trucks but I own and drive them too. That says all you need to know about my mental health.

777D bypassing I75 in Southern Ky. They turned to run across ky92 to Williamsburg. I'm not sure they made it, there's an iron bridge half way across that would shave coal and log trucks two or three times a week when I was a kid.

Looking at what is advertised as a 08 389. Build date is 05/07 though. Has a C15 that has been converted to a single turbo.(I know)… Anyways, owner says the guy before him had the conversion done by an outfit out in Kansas somewhere. Anybody heard of a place out there doing it? Or is it just a crap shoot. Owner now is an older guy that doesn't seem to know much about the whole dpf, accert twins, emissions stuff anyways. Truck is pretty clean and priced right though.

Can almost guarantee it will be lazy but can probably be somewhat fixed. If it’s clean I wouldn’t be scared of it.
I love when people spend thousands to lose performance, guy probably thought it was going to be amazing with a single. Did probably 5-6 MXS’s for a guy because he insisted they would be better. He finally admitted it was a complete waste of money.
