With the new supreme court ruling on the EPA I wonder if this means DEF systems Are no longer required.. and I wonder if CAT Can get back in the game.. If the EPA can no longer regulate
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.
Ty for being such a real provider of information. It is what it is.
Thank you!
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.
Ryan am not going to stop. Saying that you’re a honest teacher I like how you explain step by step thanks 🙏🏽.
Thank you Alex! Love to hear that!
Good thorough explanations of risks/benefits of the various engines. The fact that QuickServe was free was a powerhouse in my decision to get ISX 15. Appreciate your content!
Thank you!
Good information thanks. My opinion and experience for 30 years driving and owning trucks I decided stay with Detroit , in my case series 60 , 500 HP for the last 25 years .
Be safe out there drivers
Ryan your that dude. I learn a lot from your content alone
Thanks for your time brother. Your videos are really beneficial and helpful. God bless 🙏🏼
Thanks for your time, greatly appreciated
You are welcome! 😊
Great info well said and thank you for your diligence and efforts.
You might piss some people off but you speak the truth
👍
Appreciate your hard work and attention to details Ryan. I live in Ohio and will definitely use your services when the time comes. I started watching your channel about 2 yrs ago or so, and I am elated for you to see how far you and your family have grown. Cheers 🍻!
I appreciate that! Thank you!
@@truckingandfixing what bout Mercedes engines hypothetically?
@@truckingandfixing What about the Cummins X15? I just got my truck with my company dedicated route and its a 2023 International LT with only 5,600 miles on it. Has the X15. I was trained in a 2022 DD15 Cascadia and it feels both are similar in power maybe the edge to the detroit. Any thoughts?
💎 to the ear and I’m subscribed 🤲🏾
Thanks Ralph and Greta
I really appreciate this video. I have thought along the same lines but I do like to get reinforcement from someone I trust. I've been watching your videos long enough to trust your opinions.
Glad to hear that! Good luck! 👍
Thank you Sir for your knowledge.
Detroit series 60, cat 3406b, or Cummins n14 red top. Everything else make great boat anchors.
I'm a car mechanic looking into possibly moving to diesel and this was really informative to get acquainted with diesel engine manufacturers.
Thank you! Glad it can help! Good luck!
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge about engins. Very helpful information
Hi Ryan, I'm a driver. I really like your channel and I wanted to let you know that you are dispensing really useful and actionable information. Keep it up. I'll like and subscribe.
Me to I like cummins, last one was paccar, 6 months after my truck burned to the ground, don't know why . But was not on the tires . , well my 9900 was cummins and I did all the work on it and I loved
Thank you for free education!
you are welcome!
Yes my brother I love this video
thank you so much for sharing your time and knowledge
You are welcome! 😀
My Volvo with a d12 has 1.7 million miles had to replace the turbo recently it has two oil lines and for bolts great engine
Best Volvo motor ever
Great video, really learned a lot about the different engines and which ones to stay away from. Good job 👏 👍 👌
Thank you!
Thank you. 🇺🇸
Wish we have a knowledge Mecaniec in the Middle East like this man , we only have POS and those the good one are always booked for weeks before let you in the shop
That was awesome, and going by your experience Cummings is the best way to go 🙌
Awesome awesome topic!
My dad has an old 1970s Mack has an E9 engine that thing is a torque monster
I've got a copy Davie that works upto 2021 models it was £1200 here in the UK and its been a god send,for everything else I use delphi and it's damm good I've had it for 3 years and I've never had to go to a dealer for diagnosis.
Thanks for all the information. You have a great channel. I have been an owner operator since 1996. and from 2001-2010 I owned a fleet of 8 trucks. If someone had told me then what I know Now, I would have stuck to one truck and invested the rest of the money in real estate, Anyways still on the road. I have a 2019 VNL 860 with a Volvo motor. I have not had any major problems with it. Thanks for making great content.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing your experience in trucking! 💪
Hi Ryan thanks for excellent video you’re very smart young man learning something new everyday for me and always you be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you, I appreciate it! 👍
real deal guy. no bullshit! good man!
Thank you for a great video 👍
You are very welcome!
Thank you.
Thank you Sir, for sharing I think I will go with your preference as well, will get me a Cummins thanks again b safe Blessings!
Very easy choice. KTA600. 12V71. 318. And just for fun, 280 Cummings (have many of each) all mechanical and never problems.
Really good insights on the different engines.
Thank you!
Excellent video great information. I personally love the paccars have a fleet of them. Don't forget to mention the brief partnership between cat and Navistar that produced the cat truck. It boasted a maxxforce disguised as a cat.
You love Paccars? Wow, when I saw your profile name I thought you were more of a Volvo man.
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior LMAO
18 years in... after my C15 Cat..id say cummins has always worked best for me..on my 3 cummins engine now and each one ran over 1 million + before needed to overhauled. But to each is own
Much obliged sir
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.
Great video with awesome and honest information
I appreciate that!
I started driving in 1973 I've put millions of miles and I've had Cats,Cummins Detroit's and drove a Paccar I wouldnt own a Paccar if they gave it free to me I like Detroit's but I wouldnt own another unless it was a 92 series Cats are fine but in my experience the Cummins I've owned were the most reliable and economical enguine I've ever owned I had a isx 465 Cummins it averaged 9.1 mpg for the whole time I had it in 750k miles it never once broke down .
Thanks for providing your experience.
What you think of a 2017 international with a Cummins isx in it with 756k miles and 18k hrs on the truck
9.1 mpg- Dang!
@@RaoulThomas007 I never paid attention to the fuel milage Walmart keeps track of everything I was surprised when they gave me a certificate and Bonus for 9.1 because I had a Chevy pickup with a 454 gas enguine that only gets 8 mpg .
Cat all the way!!! Detroit 60 series are second in line and ISX 3rd
Great videos love the channel 👍
Thank you! Love to hear that!
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 🙏 👍
Thanks for sharing your experience! 👍
Good stuff. Very informative
Thank you!
Very useful information! I’m looking to hop in the owner operator seat in the next year or so and this video answers a lot of questions for me! Thanks and keep up the good work!!
You are welcome! Thank you for commenting.
Did you do it and what did you get ?
@@elperrocovero Not yet…
@@Mariodupree are you working trucking ?
Thanks for the knowledge bro
You are welcome
Great info
Great video brotha 👍
Thank you!
Thanks!
You are welcome!
I kinda like my 3408 does everything I ask it to, and sounds the best out there.
Cummins and Caterpillar my favorite engines long life engines 0 troubleshoot low maintenance high power
N14 cummins good mileage good power. Pacaar im very impressed
My 2022 Cascadia with a DD15 505 and DT12 running 103,000lbs gross gets 6.4mpg loaded 50% of miles.
Than you sir.
You are welcome!
I'd love to see an automated transmission comparison. Love to hear your thoughts on the eats an automated versus the dt12 and excetera.
Great video 🔥
Thank you!
I have isx15 they are good engines
Great video...
Thank you!
Hey thank you for your videos and I wish you can explain a little bit more about the dd15 good and bad things about it to replace or change if you get one of those
You sir are amazing 👏
Thank you!
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 TH-cam .
Thank you!
Great Content!!! Keep it coming
Thank you!
MAXXFORCE of course 😊
Thank you
You are welcome,
Hey on the Paccars, try to use Cummins Insite when you get a chance. I’ve actually had success using Cummins to connect to paccars
Thanks for the insight. Will definitely try it when you subscribe to Cummins insite
Great explanation
Thank you!
Is it just me but the paccar/daf motors just idle and run so smooth.
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.
Thanks for sharing!
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.
I drove a ProStar for USX that wouldn't stop beeping. Lol.
Thanks for the info .. and you should check out A26 engine it looks that it’s a new engine completely from the previous models. it’s some engine from Europe they got and rebranded just as Paccar has done .
the maxxforce engines and the n13 and a26 are all the same engines just with different tweaks to them, they are designed by MAN of europe and have a cummins emissions system on them so thats why they suck, they try to save a penny wherever they can
Ultimate comfort old Volvo with n14 3.90 rears… pulls like a train and tons of room and huge sleeper
pre-emission Macks are absolutely bullet proof, I can buy with half a million severe duty miles and still get some good years of round the clock work out of them.
Got that right. I have 3 pre emission Mack’s and they’ve been solid.
What does pre emission mean and why can’t these truck go to California
Cummins have been great to my family for 2 generations. I've had them in Louisville Fords IHC Volvo whites and now Im driving a '16 Cascadia daycab semi dump. Love the old DM MACKs
Not a fan of Volvo. Though they do crash well. The last one I ran no Nope NADA
I've passed on driving jobs because they ran Volvo. I've never ran a PACCAR.
We have Prostars at work. They've offered me one. NOPE IHC died when they went to a single piece windshield.
I agree with you on the delete . DONT DO IT. I'd love to have an old NTC in a Transtar COE. Like dad had when I was a kid. But we'll just have to make the best out of these emissions lemons we can.
I love your channel I have in my landscaping business I driving a1972 dodge C series medium duty with a 5th wheel mine has a gas 413-1 engine but it starting to need soom to rebuilt I heard dodge had Cummins I like cat but wonder which you like to use and have a GMC cab over with a Detroit diesel
12.7 dirty Detroit is what i run, no issues whatsoever tons of power.
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.

Cummins
Caterpillar

Believe me when i tell you my cats get great milage and are super reliaible . My 379 with a c15 6nz gets 7 to 8 mpg . " turbo manifold tune and fast fuel system !
Nothing like CAT 🐱 engine
Drove them all …a little bad on fuel but hey hey hey ….not even one engine can hit 1.8 million before an in frame other than the Yellow beast 🤣🤣🤣
D12
Big cam cummins
Sweet you like the cummins. Ive been a fan of them since they were the choice of Dodge. I love the early 2000s Dodge PU. My future KW next gen will have a Cummins. That next gen KW is a beauty. Waiting F*%K paying FET. 😂 Thanks, love your vids.
👍
Love my 12.7 60 series Pre everything! lol. Loud as crap but solid
Very true, especially in freightliner Columbia, maintenance is cheapest and easiest, less maintenance than any truck on market now, has 3 big problems noise, vibration and driver comfort, but you don’t lose money because of those 3 problems,
True
I have 2 2017 N13 prostars in my fleet, 1 I’ve been happy with, it’s done amazing. The second I’m on the fence about, as it’s had the def sensor go out and had to wait 5-6 weeks to get it back, but that was a brand wide problem, not international. 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
Thats a pos trade that crap in before you spend another 13k
@@bernlew977 new scr should last at least another 450k, why would I sell it off to someone else when I’ve already put the investment into it
i have a 2016 n13b i love it ..doser valve went bad but under warranty from international at that..best 21k spent and the best 2 years and still kicking. it was a prime lease return with 385xxx when i got it in 2020. i haul heavy cans so i really abuse it too ..i keep up on pms ...and i can say knock on wood i haven't been down the last 2 years. when they replace the doser valve i planned it while i was on vaction ..
@@phillyracer83 8 months later both my n13s running strong. My best truck in my fleet is an n13
@@spillybuilt7491 good to hear . Good mpg too . Easy to maintain
Cummins is the best engine out there right now . Rarely have dpf , def issues like with a Detroit
Glad you agree with me! 👍
X15 my choice .
Every trucker I know loves the cat motors. They either wish they had one or love theirs.
I agree that 1 box is a down fall
I have the 2014 prostar w/ Mac force N13 bought with 620000 on it put about 40 k on it have put about 10k into it . New high pressure fuel pump and ac compressor and Davco fuel filter assy. I am pretty happy with its driving and starting in very cold but my first truck only paid 13k for it so have about 24k into it so I guess that isn't too bad considering prices right now. guess we will see how this year goes would like to get at least another 120k out if it without something major like EGR cooler or turbo etc. Thanks Ryan for all your great advice.
Good luck! Thank you!
A truck like the prostar with the maxxx 13 is a vaccum hose stuffed into your wallet connected to an unreliable venesualian powergrid
Fuel mileage. It's everything. Over the life of a million miles half gallon can add $ 50k easy. FYI, I vote dd13 ghg17 or newer.
I don't see how to subscribe I guess I got to go to your homepage.. okay got it I was already subscribed.
Thanks ..?? What do you charge for a bell housing seal or gasket , clutch replacement & a over head adjustment on a T-680 2015 ISX -15??
Your soo right, boss.. international gone bad.. MAN.. 21.30
Personal I have 3 truck 2 freightliner first is a 2004 columbia with a mbe4000 with 978k the other is 2013 cascadia with dd13 with 740k, and 3 is a 2014 386 peterbilt. with only 189k right now am rebuilding the dd13 engine believe it or not the best I have is the mbe400 I think is the best engine in the time I own it for 10 plus year never had any esue only change the water pump and injector cup I think in my opinión the best the other 2 including 386 peterbilt I had it in the dealer for more than 6 month nightmare. My conclusion mbe4000 my choice think put one on my cascadia ✌️
C 15 always the best engine I got 07 international 9400i with c 15 1.1 million apu still working never idle since I got the truck never let me down still original turbo air compressor.
Good for you! 👍
Love my mechanical ppumped dt466. The only international I would ever own.
I've worked on those a few times and got a few on the farm. Damn good engines for sure!
What application you got it in?
@@PoliticalGangster 26ft box truck
How reliable are the dt466?
I think you need to look at the A26 motors a little bit better. They are good motors, I have plenty of the min the fleet and they seem to be more reliable than the cummins in some of the internationals or KWs.
the a26 is the newest variant of the maxxforce engines so it has all the upgrades that make the old versians i.e maxxforce and n13 breakdown so much but like he said just keep an eye on them, i got to drive one with the a26 and i seems to be a smoother running engine than the original maxxforce and the n13
Brother my snap on I did the cut off injector no problem but like change speed limiters. Idle shutdown etc no like I was able to do on the x15 and isx15 .
How much to do a valve adjustment and to check fuel pump to see if it has ceramic plungers on a 2015 isx
