Is Case dropping the CDC 5. 9 in favor of the New Holland 7. 5 in their midrange tractors? All the new specs that I see don't appear to include the 5. 9. Seems like only AGCO is still using the 5. 9. Maybe a response to keep up with Deere, but I liked the high-output 5. 9, could hold its own...

Got a boat with twin 370hp Cummins 903ci V8 diesels (former tugboat engines), and was thinking about re-powering. Not that the 903 V8s were a problem, just thinking about size-reduction and maintenance concerns later (903s are HUGE, duh). I find it amazing (or maybe I should expect) that Cummins...

Saw the deer about 200 yards away, put the brakes on, deer was trotting along the road, slowed down to about 20mph when I got up on her, then sure enough, she decided the best escape was to dive under my bumper! I don't think I hurt her too much, looked like I bruised her hindquarters pretty...

Anyone else had underhood paint wear-thru? Just noticed mine on the seal near the windshield where the gasket contacts the underside of the hood. Wonder if this is unique to the Cummins trucks due to vibration, or if Dodge has it in general. If so, seems like this would be covered by warranty...

Just wondering, passed a 3500 4x4 on the interstate the other day and it looked to be about 2 inches higher than my 2500 4x4 on a level road. Was wondering if the 3500 4x4s come from the factory with a taller suspension up front? This 3500 4x4 also looked level, as compared to my 2500 4x4 that...

Lately here in North Texas, the temp has flucuated from near freezing to 70 degrees, so I've usually been hooking up the block heater overnight. But a few times at work or elswhere forgot to let the light go out before starting and see lots of white smoke on startup. I've noticed after unhooking...

Nothing special really to report here, just wanted to say passed the 30K mile mark on my 2001 24 valver and everything is fine. I might regret these words later, but so far looks like I have a good solid build. Only thing I had it back for is the "hard hot restart" computer TSB upgrade, and an...

Parents just purchased a big houseboat with a pair of Cummins 8T370 engines. Didn't have time to check out the engine plate or serial #s, but was wondering, is this basically a marine version of the 903ci V-8 or the old 555ci V-8? I noticed that Cummins Marine does not offer a 8T370 anymore...

Man, just got out of a drive in my buddy's Audi A4 with the Tiptronic transmission and it was awesome. I wish I could get something like this trans with the Cummins Diesel, it would be nice. I saw where the DCX Unimog has an electronic trans like this but with even more brains. I like a manual...

Got about 18,000 miles on my truck, but noticed this habit of it since I've had it: After running on the freeway for say a few hours, then stop at a roadside quickmart, stop the engine, pop inside for less than 5 minutes, crank the truck and it doesn't fire right up. Usually takes at...
