I was just looking at Truckpaper at Prostars. 2008's run about $55,000 and up.
You said you were getting yours for $32,000.
What am I missing. Or did I read it wrong.

I like the engine-off A/C, but I'll tell you what: I'd take the ISX in my old truck ANY day over this MaxForce. Crappy power (has a lot to do with the way they have the rev limiter set up. The engine brake is almost a joke. For some reason, they don't believe me when I tell the shop that the engine brake shuts off above 1,450rpm (we're told that 1,850 is the best rpm for the engine brake). It also has a HUGE delay before it turns on under 1,450. So, by the time it turns on, it's almost to the 1,000rpm cutoff anyway.

U think YOU have problems? my Pornstar's engine brake comes on by itself and i cant turn it off!
