I was going to wait to get an actual pic, and wait til I settled down from what has turned into a bad deal. But I went with an almost new truck juat like this one, it has 53,000 miles on it. It is a 2017 kenworth 780 with pacar motor and auto shift trany. It has 500,000 mile/5 year warranty on all the emissions and electrical parts with no deductable, those are the parts that cost me on this truck. It also has 750,000 mile warranty on the enhine and driveline. This is a pic of what it will look like, but this is not mine. I always put on my own graphics on my trucks and will need to decide what to put on this one.
After I made the decission to trade I just had them button up my truck so I could get to Atlanta to get my new one and left, but I only made it a couple miles before smoke started coming out from under the hood. When I got stopped and looked I found what is in the second 2 pics. That is the line for what is called the 7th injector which is what heats up the filter during regen. That line could have sprayed fuel on the manifold while I was driving. Turns out that not hooking up that line was why the system didn't work after the first repair. So there is no reason for the second $6,000 repair. They also broke the line when they were putting it back on and they didn't have a replacement, so I'm still stuck here til noon today. I am still going to go with the new truck, but am a bit peaved that they screwed this up and cost me at least a week off before I get into my new truck, not to mention buying a new truck I wouldn't have done otherwise. Oh well, stuff happens and I'm sure I will like this new truck as it's quite a bit nicer than mine. And I'll feel a lot more secure with the warranty to save me money.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
