They're doing well in our fire trucks, which are only available in 510hp 1850 torque option. They idle a lot or pumping at high RPM for long times. No warm up just fire them up and pedal to the floor responding to calls. Of course, we aren't pulling fancy gap daily with 80K. But they're doing well in the fire industry. I think over time with them being in the fire industry with us putting them through hell will benefit over the road trucks in the long run. We use to run Cat when they where available.
Good video Man im moving cat single turbo only getting 5.2 miles gallon going into T680 paccar APU. Seen saving is about $1200 on how we run here flat ground in tx.

What trailer? Flatbeds usually don't do great with aerodynamics
Paccar do have an Enging with about 500 hp you know that right.
Yep
Paccar has best Performing Engine overall and best fuel efficient.
you’ve never had a 3406 or 6nz cat… or n14 cummins… paccar is not best performing or reliable.
My paccar blew up with 700 miles on it.
@@tips4truckers252better 700 than 700k
@Unduplicatable yeah peterbilt took car of everything
I had same truck pulling flatbed my mpg 7-7.2mpg watch how u shift it .
True I also drive 70
Yes, I get between low 7 to high 7 mpg with my paccar T680 Kenworth.
My flatbed really kills fuel mileage
I'm scared of paccar engines
After 630k on mine I can tell it's wore out
@@tips4truckers252really?
Blow by or anything?
@@BlantonTruckingLLC no blow by but hard to tell since it has a filter. Doesn't use any oil but definitely down on power
@@tips4truckers252cuz it need fuel rail cleaning paccar do need that every 250k
