Some people would have just given up on it and sold it, but you've made it back into a great looking truck. Only thing that would make it better is if it was a 475 cat! lol

Nice man was the truck stolen for the truck? or stolen for the load behind it? . Stolen for the truck then they stole the trailer then the load. The guys stole 2 trucks a flatbed & a drop deck & then went to john deer & stole 8 tractors & got busted before they left the parking lot

Detroit for-the-fucking-win!
I've ran Cat's, Cummins', Detroit's, and Volvo's engine. My favorite is the Detroit DD15 with the new bluetech technology(had that in the Coronado for the one who remember). Right after is the Cat. Them engine are smooth as fuck and they go sit pretty fucking low at their peak torque. Cummins are a good also and volvo are good if you don't have a horse....

Yea we sold our 07 classic XL for that same problem. EGR & the actuator valve was going out left & right. That's why we went back old school but. Next year me & my dad are trying to order two 389's from Fitzgerald Gliders

I drove a pretty nice shorthood 379 with a 470 Detroit and a 10 and that son of a bitch would give the old 460 cummins a run for her money. I blew a turbo on it one day and painted the highway black, and my tanker.

Detroits are good, but wouldn't be my first pick. cummins would be mine, they have the best jakes, especially the isx15.

If you don't haul heavy stuff and want fuel mileage, get a detroit. If you want ok power and decent fuel mileage get a cummins. If you want amazing power and decent fuel mileage get a cat and don't drive it like a damn mustant...

Lol what he said but i do pretty good on fuel I put 120 gallons in a day & I pull 3 loads of sand 168miles 1 way & 2 loads of rock on a back haul & that will take me home & make it back to the fuel pump the next morning! That Detroit in that truck is a Man I had it turned up Alittle bit & changed the road speed on it I love the 3.36 rears & the 10spd cause it's mostly flat land down here where I'm at! the pulling power off road in the sand holes & quarry's are good the truck will run & gets a decent fuel mileage. & not the type of driver to go to the pump & fill it up everytime. I only get what I need. But don't get me wrong i love them kitty cats too my dad w900 has a 3406b with 15spd & 4.11 & it will go but every man has there likes & dislikes
