Hey everyone

Posted

Hey guys,

my names Derek I'm from Redgranite Wisconsin. Been lurking around here for a few months now, I must say this place is addicting. I currently have a 01 2500 quad cab shortbox 4wd auto. It's my first 24 valve. Pretty much stock except for a diablosport power puck and mbrp 4"turbo back straight  exhaust and a bhaf. Named her the bluebird because it's patriot blue and I guess it fits. I've had plenty of 7.3 power strokes in the past but figured it's time for a Cummins. I work for JX Peterbilt as a service tech/ 2nd shift service manager. I hold Cummins full service qualifications in the ISX,ISM,ISL,ISB,ISC,and N14 family's of engines. Also am Paccar MX engine certified and ASE Master certified truck equipment technician.I've been around the medium, heavy truck field for 14+ years. Work on plenty of cats and detroits as well. If it's got #2 in the tank I'll play with it. Glad to have stumbled on this site lots of good info here!

    Welcome. Mine is Blue over silver and I have always been partial to it. My paint is getting a little tired though.

    Welcome! Great to have another experienced mind here!

    Mines blue over silver too. I really like the paint but living in Wisconsin there is a little rust starting and I can't stand it. Rust free southern body parts are in order eventually, would love to keep the same paint scheme. Trucks only got 122k on it I got it from the original owner who spec'd the truck to order. It's lead a pretty easy life. I got gauges and a fass to install plus some other fun stuff in the works. I can't leave anything stock. Lol

    Nice truck, I'm sure you can preserve it well 

     

    Being in the trucking industry I've drove a few of the engines you got listed. I'm currently pushing a Detroit as my daily driver, not the biggest power plant out thier and a little underpowered for what I do but reliable and gets the job done, at least I get paid by the hour Lol!

    Thanks guys! Detroits are not bad well ddec 3  series 60s anyways they are stout and stupid simple. Don't care to much for the dd15s but I don't ever have to work on them cause they never got put in petes. Mostly Cummins and Cats and the paccar MX is what I play with.

    Welcome to the Family here... That's a fine looking truck there.
