My best 2 engines have been #1 Detroit Diesel series 60 12.7 liter 500hp which ran 1.8 million miles before the overhaul and 7 years after before I retired and sold it, #2 Cummins N14 460hp which went 1.4 million miles which was still going strong when I sold it.

[@sokodad]

I’m running a 2019 Mack Anthem with the MP8. It has 426,000 on it. It’s been a good engine. My employer runs all Mack’s with this power plant with minimal problems. Last employer I ran for had me in a KW 680 with the X15. It was pretty good engine for the most part. It had its issues. Freightliner I ran rarely but ran one when my KW was in for a service and it left me sit. Just completely shut down like I turned off the key.

[@lintongrant2978]

Yes my brother I love this video

[@davesmith2150]

Dd15 paired with dt12 transmission is the best emissions engine I have 830k on mine and burn no oil runs like new. Check engine light about every 100k sometimes I can fix it.

[@robbflynn4325]

I drive an International pro star, typically pull a 53 foot van trailer. We are a contractor for the postal service so loads are never that heavy. Trucks are about 5 years old with 500,000 miles. There are always warning lights displayed on the dash, we are told to carry on driving. Transmissions can be a bit erratic, but overall is a quite a nice truck to drive.

[@truckingandfixing]

Thanks for sharing!

[@MrMan-ol4ic]

I drove a mid 2000's international as loaner from a guy I drove for. It had the Max force engine in it. Only had 480,000+ on it and went. Threw a rod. Because the oil pump went. It was nice truck. But those Max force engine's are junk.

[@dchawk81]

I drove a ProStar for USX that wouldn't stop beeping. Lol.

[@nandostransport7958]

Got a 2015 Freightliner Cascadia with a DD15 good so far changed Injector cups and seals, Cam housing gaskets, Oil Pump and O-rings, Transmission fluid, Differential fluid. 710,600 miles on it doing my best on prevent maintenance, next I will change Injectors and fuel quantity control valve. Oil change and fuel filter change every 20k. Just had to delete it due to the DOC pressure sensor, running fine so far. Having a good mechanic that knows your engine is a plus. Also change your coolant every year to prevent rust around the cylinder liners that a plus to. Take care of your engine and it will take care of you, I'm very strict about engine maintenance that's the heart of the truck. Thanks Ryan your knowledge is very appreciated 🙏 👍

That was awesome, and going by your experience Cummings is the best way to go 🙌

[@anthony1636]

Yep the Mack MP8 is a Volvo power plant. And in all honesty they are a fine powerplant. People make a big thing about the problems they have with injector cups. And yes they do go wrong, but Cummins also suffer from the same problem. As for Paccar I am very biased, they are an excellent power plant and my first choice when looking for a new truck. As for the software you definitely can get the software a lot cheaper now, as it is widely advertised through online websites. Obviously it is not from Paccar but it is a perfect copy. ( Only available from European websites I believe ). Keep up the good work Ryan best Truck website on KZbin .

But then a month later the scr was cracked and had to spend 13.4k to get a brand new scr. Since then it’s been decent, but we will see how it holds up the rest of the year

[@michaeldunagan8268]

I take umbrige that you mentioned Detroit Seies 60 but did not mention my engine: Commins N14 Celect Plus. My thoughts: Macks are slow, Deries 60s are good when running empty, and Volvos are good when bobtailing. Caterpillars are strong but are very, very, very, thirsty. Hence, I chose Cummins N14 so that I get decent fuel mileage and I do not lose speed going up most mid-western hills; Eaton 13-speed assists in this.

Is the n14 still viable for a few more years if it's in a newer glider? My DD15 has been in the shop nonstop for the past 5 months for codes that nobody can figure out how to fix. So I'm a motivated seller and have been looking closely at the other brands, lately leaning toward Cummins for the high availability of shops, but you might have just sold me with your insights on their software and free manuals. I love supporting those rare companies that do things the right way, and Cummins sounds like they might be way above the rest in that aspect. It sure would be nice to find a newer Cummins pre-emmission glider for sale right now, as long as there's still good parts availability.

Hi Ryan, great video! Just started watching some of your videos. Do you work on any box trucks or medium duty diesel engines? I know how reliable Hino and Cummins engines are, is Mercedes diesel engines any good? My dad use to drive a 1972 Mercedes Benz I think L series box truck and it was pretty reliable except for the turbo going out. Let me know your thoughts and mentorship. Also looking to buy a used 24' or bigger box truck, no Def, non cdl with air brakes and I prefer manual over automatic transmission. Please let me know if you see one in great condition! Thanks!

The current DD series and the equivalent Mercedes OM47x series are fundamentally the same. Both are part of the DWEP (Daimler World Engine Program). The difference all comes down to emissions the DD being given EPA compliant the Mercedes being Euro6 compliant. The same designs are also used in the Mitsibishi Fuso in Asia and MTU for marine applications.

Hino engines are made by Toyota.
