    I love the cummins in my current truck. Had a inframe 100k ago (was a fleet truck and the last ahole driver put sand in the oil) so far no hickups its a 2011, the new dpf filter that cummins came out with seems to have solved alot of the regen issues with this model. Not had any in 100k now.

    It's now rarely to see a dpf or scr engine getting to million miles without breakdown.

    DO NOT BUY THE MAXXFORCE
    LOW MILES, LOW PRICE, HIGH MAINTENANCE, LOW PROFIT...
    I'VE LEARNED THE HARD WAY, NEARLY DROWNED!

    There are many MAN trucks in Kiev, and I do not like MAN/navistar 13 L engine. Sufisticated CRD system is too expencive and not reliable enought
