Trucks

[AgriKing]

Just wondering. LOL

[djt14]

I chose cummins. Since that's what we have most of. Cat is a second tho. Detroits where reliable. Still got one in the fleet. IDK about mercedes. There more over seas to me. More for smaller pulls? Never been around one. And i didn't even know international made engines. Are they in the new trucks?

Went with Cat. Love em. Second choice would be a tie between Cummins and IH. Really like the Ih Dt466.

international made the dt466. It was a pretty good engine and you see it in a lot of their smaller truck. Our tandem has a dt466 rated at 225 hp. Previous tandem had one at 240 hp. All of our school's buses use dt466s.

They also used them is Terex Ts14G Scrapers. I believe from 2000-2003 where they switched to Cummins.

[austin7930]

i'll vote for cat since thats what most of the pete 379s have.

[AgriKing]

I chose Detroit, we have had 0 problems with ours, good running and efficent diesels.

dont forget about the v8 7.3 idi international out of the f series from 84.5-94.5

i chose cummins cant beat a 12v or a good running 24v.

[AgriKing]

Or the 94.5-2003.5 7.3 POWERSTROKE

[70ds]

I had to vote for Cummins. That is the engine I have had the most experience with in Trucks.

[magnum 7240]

cummings M11 what he got in the international but it was a hard choice between the or detroit

[AgriKing]

Cummins are like the only diesels like anyone knows

[jfoust]

I chose Internationals, I drive a truck with their MaxxForce 10 Engine. WOW!!!

[smalltownfarmer]

the new international engines are cat with differant heads on them but i am still a cummins fan threw and threw

[nielsenfarms]

CAT,Detroit,and Cummins. I can't pick a favorite but whatever runs.

[Sam Talley]

Cat , dads 07 KW has a 625 cat and it moves and out pulls all the Detroits and Cummins so its my favorite. What about Paccar's and Volvo's and when did they stop making Caterpillar's?

[pierson2010]

They stopped making on highway engines for a few years there. Cat recently started making them again. They even have a semi too. Here is the site you can check it out at www.cat.com/truck

[djt14]

I see they changed the truck up a bit. Used to look like a intl workstar. Basically the same. That was in June when i saw that tho...

Dallas

[gmauch]

Voted for CAT. We now have 4 KW all with CAT and they run great never a major problem. Our Cummins and Detroit engines don't seem t hold up quite as good.

[CRFarms]

I voted awhile back, but forgot to post..
I chose CAT as dad ran them in all his previous trucks and his Pete that he runs for a company now and I have a lot of experience with them. Detroit in second then International in third and Cummins in 4th.
