At my previous job they got some newer wreckers with the X15 guys and I said it sounds more truck like my first job got all new Paccar junk now they are European motors I think they sound horrible make no power got issues screw em Cummins X15 ain’t too bad its new and loaded with sensors and tech and other bullshit only new engine id take. CATERPILLAR EVERYTHING CATERPILLAR IS WORTH IT. I own Kenworth long hood boahs with high powered CAT engines. I rescued a old a model with a V8 CAT turned up over 600. I hear older guys say it rated at 450HP and it put out that much 600HP. Well since this one I rescued was left to rot, once I got the power plant running again I’d say yeah they are correct thing rolled coal and pulled guzzling diesel fuel (they known for that also and it’s a V8 so…) Good stuff I’d love to post KZbin videos but since I’m out and about the shit I do I don’t got time to do the computer work I focus on many other things I’ve been asked.

The only things I wouldn’t be able to deal with is not enough engine braking power and also longevity concerns when upping the power on the x15. I’ve heard it’s a no-no because of the very high compression of these engines. We haul 159,000 here in Michigan

[@zachyd2369]

Sure sounds amazing though

[@peterbiltlogger1189]

Yes the engine braking power loss is a bit of a problem. The tune I'm running is not a lot more power than it was stock so I'm hoping longevity won't be a problem. So far I have about 2500 hrs on this setup with no problems.
