I was reading the article in Light and Medium duty trucking. I'll try to get the link from the online issue.

Just read an article by the CEO. They are offering a Diesel engine and a new transmission in 2013 models. You probably already know this but thought I would throw it in. On the other hand it will probably cost $80k and parts will be twice as hard to find. That's just a punn from me. LOL!

If you don't have the proper drill for drilling frames and the proper alignment lasers then I would suggest a pro. If the axle is just a 1/4 of an inch out of line you will pay for it in tires alone. Just a suggestion.

I want one.

I thought I was the only owner who has a driver that said that. :o

Aside from the argument w/Ken your statement about oil all over the engine told the whole story. I would make Kenworth pay and fire the mechanic. Got nothing to do with the dip stick. The shop should not have released the truck until it was fixed.

And you didn't take them to court??

Yeh that's hard to do. 5/8 wrench maybe 3/4, remove from pan, replace with new part. I wouldn't take a lawn mower to that place.

I agree with the pre-trip end of it but the shop should have checked the problem. Turbo's are cooled by oil. It's supposed to be checked by the mechanic to make sure the cooling line didn't break and loose oil or the when the Turbo went south it didn't send oil out the exhaust. To many dip...

Like Chef said sooner or later. My advice is if your going to buy a DRW truck you may as well buy a straight truck. Cost of operation, Max Weight, etc, etc, etc.. If you are going to pay $32k for a truck look at the Independence model Ultra max w/srw. 13' box and can carry about 3K p/ld and...

Buy one to the wheel base you desire with a single axle, ad a drop axle and a box and go trucking.

I want it!:cool:

Depending on the wattage, but when he goes to pay for the 12' of 4/0 cable he'll probably pass out.

I run 2/0 on my C/Vans from the main battery back which is about 5-8 feet and the rest is 1/0. My TT I also use 2/0 as a main line. You need a cable that not only carrys the current with less restriction but one that doesn't create heat.

Did not see the tag. It looked to be a 12k. I also wouldn't buy it.
