Dude...MX13 is the same as D13 Volvo....
-
Mx13, everything on them is expensive. Uses cummins dpf system. ISX15 or X15 (new 2017 engine) are though cheaper. Simple maintenace. Can get some decent mpg, depends how it was specd.

Your question of Cummins or MX? Neither. Why do you think there are so many so cheap. Get a Volvo D13 and you will live happily ever after.SoCal Trucker Thanks this. -
Thats a 1st, Ive been told that the MX is made by Cummins,
From what I understand the 2013 ISX15 is supposed to be much more reliable in regards to the regen sys.
KANSAS TRANSIT Thanks this. -
However, ive heard the pre emissions D16 is a Beast!Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
This has been heavily debated, passionately over and over again here, I think anyone that would get one is off their rocker, especially for a first truck. -
Im in California so im stuck in a way, I can buy an older pre emissions truck and dodge Carb and risk getting fined 1500-10,000.00 or buy an emission-ed truck and risk the regen system putting me in the shop and maybe out of business. Hence the title of this post, the lesser of two evils i guess.
And why I am going o/O ? just livin the dream, something ive always wanted to do. I would rather try and fail or succeed and say that I did it, than to say " Man I shouldve at least tried"Simplespeed and fargonaz Thank this. -
