I found this on a website.................................................................
I'm in the process of aquiring a 900,000 Mile Cummins.
It's a 2001, extended cab, long bed, auto, fully loaded, heated leather, etc.
The scoop:
I've mentioned the truck before. It was used for hauling campers until 785,000 Miles. Then sold again here locally. (2 owners total)
The current owner is selling it because the tranny is nuked
(I'm assuming he lost the front drum)
It is however a fully built BD Power transmission.
It was put in around 300,000 Miles during 2004. So what BD Power did to the transmissions then is beyond me. (Maybe someone will chime in on that)
The engine and axle are still orginal. The injection pump was replaced at around 700,000 Miles. The turbo was replaced recently. All new tires. Texas grill. Big 100 gallon tank in the bed. The outside is rough but nothing unusal for 900,000 Miles. Edge EZ Tow. BD Injectors........
Is cummins the ultamate diesel motor for american made trucks??(not the semi's)
I think so cummings is a inline 6cylinder motor(that means the pistins line up like chevete's pistins do)
While chevy an fords motors are v-8s, and the cummins(inline 6) still has the most TQ and HP then the chevys and fords..
U say thats no way cummins has 2 less pistins than chevy and ford,well its true cummins has the most TQ and HP...Until ford put 2 turbos on the 08 diesel models..
why does ford have to put 2 turbos on there trucks??
I'll tell ya why, it's b/c they caint beat cummings in TQ or HP any other way
