Thanks guys

WD40- I'm hoping the phrase "You get what you paid for" comes into play with this truck...and you can drive on 1 condition...you fill her up with fuel

Heat- I picked the ISX because i've heard nothing but good things about them...I also took a KW with the ISX 600 from here in Virginia to Oregon, and I was very impressed with it...but time will tell whether it was a good choice or not

Maintain- I'm sure there are plenty of ways to get more horses out of the ISX but mine is listed at 600...that's plenty enough HP for me though

By the way, i'm heading into to town friday...so I should have pics by this weekend

Talking Congrats!

Sounds like a nice rig! Be sure not to push that "START" button down by the man. fan switch until the truck tells you to! Now c'mon down to Springfield, MO and let us put a rigmaster on fer ya, some chicken lights and lots of LED's on the bumper.
Cummins is making a huge come back in the Petes. We saw very few until about a year ago. Cat had some issues with the particulate reburn system but Cummins had it figured out pretty quick, it shows now. One of our clients just bought 36 386's, everone of them with a Cummins.
Can't wait to see the pics!
I'm sending you a PM.
