09 cat c13?

[DreamTeam]

Any problems to report on this engine? I am mostly concerned with the re gen.

BIG problem. It's a Cat engine and Cat SUCKS when it comes to backing their product. I wouldn't have another Cat engine if they gave it to me for free. Caveat Emptor.

Regens are a problem with anything built in 09.

I have a slightly lower opinion than LDB.
But you're not looking for my opinion. Is this the engine that caused ES to leave the last trucks of the order at the dealership ?
I'd be asking ES drivers of thier experiences. I did one repower of an ES truck that was having regen issues but I didn't jang around and chat with the drivers.

Probably a pretty accurate statement.
Of the research I did looking for a new truck the only thing I would reccomend would be a Detroit with DEF or a Volvo with DEF.

Thanks for the input, I'm glad it was only a verbal agreement to purchase this truck.

If you don't care about fuel mileage no. And the comments about 09 are true.
