    Great engine in my opinion. Im still running mines with no issues, over 1.5 million on mines with only one overhaul. I got the maintenance history. I read all the horror reviews online, people at the truck auction telling me not to buy it but listening to your videos is what made me decide to place that bid. I been in business ever since.

    Man this video gave me a lot of confidence in the dump truck I was on the fence about. I’d like to get a little info on where you got the in frame done so maybe I can have a lead on future repair. I test drove the one in question yesterday and I was really impressed in pulling power.

      If you don't have a mechanic that's certified by Mercedes to work on these engines don't get it. Buy a 12.7 Detroit

    I have a 2007 freightliner m2 dump truck MBE4000 410hp Allison automatic tans with an original 209k on it that I’m thinking of purchasing. In your opinion, with such low miles is it worth buying?

    They are pretty good engines. They don't pull as good as just a Detroit but they are quieter and better on fuel 😎 . I had a 2007 that was great. They are lighter too.

      Change fuel filters & injectors. If your getting 5mpg that's normal.
