Never been that far north yet. I was up in Roscommon a month or so ago but that's as far north as I've made it since I moved out there in 2001.

Your profile says you're a firefighter. You should come down to Mt Pleasant in March to the conference.

I got to Alpena once. Drove one of those rolling construction barrels delivering to Wally-mart. Kinda liked it up there.

Thanks for the explanation and sorry I can't help with your question.
Sled pulling tractors sometimes have 4 turbos.

That is still a lot. Almost 600k on my MBN C15 turbo.

What year is it?
I know guys hauling oil up here who bought a mid 90's spare truck because of all the time their new trucks were spending in the shop a few years back when CAT brought out the C-15's with twins. the one guy was on his 6th set of turbo's in 19 months, thankfully he was still under warranty
