500,000 miles in 07 cab & chassis

sorry, but if you read these forms they is no way that a 6.7 and the emissions will last longer than the drive home from the dealer. You must THINK you have a 2007.

I know! I'm waiting for mine to grenade any second!

I don't know, it is a 2007, and it is a 6.7 and it has almost 522k miles on it now. The emissions system, that is another story.

Congratulations. I didn't think that trailer looked that long. I was thinking 30'. I missed that by a mile, didn't I? You've got plenty of trailer for 16,000 then. Nothing wrong with that. In my neck of the woods it's 30-footers with 14 big round bales and crossing the scales at 42,000. On single-wheel pickups. My uncle has a 30-foot Titan that's been there and done that a lot. It's a heck of a good trailer to survive him.

My '07 has 160K miles and the emissions stuff has never been touched yet! Is my truck the exception to the rule??? (knockin on wood now!)

If you haul heavy or drive hwy most of the time it should last a long time, less regen happens if you drive it hard.

I haven't caught up with EB yet but my 08 has a bit over 370,000 on it now and is still running the complete original exhaust system. It is however acting a bit odd right now. Check my post in the 6.7 engine/drive train forum...

I've seen you on the road down on the coast. I was running back and forth from the Valley to Houston with Texas Eastern. Based out of Portland TX. Wish I was back down there!!!

 

[MMeier]

EB, is it picking up work wise down your way ? Truck's been doing great then it sounds like since that "extra" stuff fell off a while back !

We're staying busy. Not really so much for my size truck and trailer, but the big trucks are running more than I would want to. The roads in the eagle ford shale area are really bad, the state and counties are fixing them, but they can't catch up. I'm over 540k now but will be taking a break for a while starting next month.
