  • I just spent $525 on a belt repair that failed within 45 miles. Then had to pay for it again. Plus a tensioner! Rusty and More!

    Too bad Khai didn't look at the tensioner and know what was going to happen down the road! What a P.I.T.A!!!
    Hope you get a spare belt? The problem with a gear operated water pump is when the seals and bearings go out, the coolant ends up in the crankcase. Keep on Truckin! Be safe.

    Hi Darrel. You should take this Cascadia back to the thief that you got it from. You've had more problems with it in 2 months than anyone should in a year or more. The quality of the Detroit Diesels have gone down since Daimler bought them out.
    You and lil Rusty stay safe..

    Man I sure feel your pain. Just had a drive tire have a slice taken out in the sidewall yesterday. Ughh $829. Luckily I have tire pressure monitoring system on all the truck tires so it let me know I was losing air. That was better than finding out by seeing tire piece flying all over the road and ripping a fender apart.
    That sux having to track down parts. That tension sure can cause a problem. It seems like everytime we have a good week we get hit with repairs 🤦🏻‍♂️.

    Most road service guys are not that knowledgeable. The number one thing is see on the dd13 dd15 etc platform is oil pickup tube cracks and o ring failure that's says bye bye to engine real quick. Bad designs because its plastic. If your truck has near 250k or 500k i would change them out. I'm very knowledgeable on those engines hit me up if you have any questions.

    I give you credit for being able to organize maintenance/repairs stuck on the road. High markets for the qualified shop/ mechanic that advised you about the problem. A top mechanic is worth their weight in gold they kinda inspect the whole vehicle. Did they give you any more pointers what to watch for in the future. Many experienced drivers/ mechanics/ shops have a book about pre maintenance for this vehicle. I'm making a supportive comment nothing negative just to be clear clutch trucker. Everyone feels the frustration living in today's world. Have a most wonderful Rusty and clutch trucker.

    Over it owner/operator must be worth it or you wouldn't still be doing it. I had some rent houses and same thing, the potential didn't always match reality but all in all it worked out. I was watching an old video or yours when I was looking at buying a new microwave. Not much change over 4 years.
