Re: Tractor reaches 1 Million Miles

Well if that be the case Ill put Mikey on the Buss and send him home and go out of service with this truck. Richmond has always been a good area for me. But then again Its 60 miles to the house as well.
Or 300 miles to the big guys yard.

Its been since May but 300 buck week and a 500 weeks dont cut the dice either.

Re: Tractor reaches 1 Million Miles

I've got 800K on mine, but then again it is a Cat C-10. I expect at least a mil plus of mine. Of course, mine doesn't have to work near as hard as the one Ice has, being that it's a straight and not an E.

Re: Tractor reaches 1 Million Miles

I have a C-10 D unit refer and I am trading in my FL-70 for another one. I trust my Cummins ISX more. I think it will last longer. Each one is in a D unit and the engines are not working very hard since it's expedite.

Re: Tractor reaches 1 Million Miles

Do you think the cost of repair in Cat engines will go up now that they are leaving the on highway engine market?
