Vocational truck engines

Two can be better than one. But when it comes to diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) dosing systems, Cummins is sticking with what works.

Cummins has launched the Power to Build Community, an exclusive online forum designed to help vocational bodybuilders integrate the company’s latest engines, hardware and software.

Maximizing fluid economy in a heavy-duty diesel powertrain begins long before a new truck delivers its first load.

Engine nostalgia or not, Cummins’ latest X15 diesel is its most reliable heavy-duty engine yet, improving total cost of ownership for fleets and owner-operators.

When shopping for new trucks, experts say fleets and owner-operators should look past the sticker price and focus on the total cost of ownership (TCO).

From tough terrain across the United States for UPS to steep grades in Canada, Cummins’ X15N natural gas engine has spent its first year proving it can handle heavy hauls while delivering near-zero emissions at a lower fuel cost than diesel.

What if the stuff we throw away could keep trucks moving? In this episode of Power Onward, Kim sits down with Dave to talk about renewable natural gas, aka RNG, and how it turns things like landfill trash, cow manure, and food waste into clean, usable fuel.

Fleets that are already using natural gas trucks stand to gain additional value by expanding with Cummins’ portfolio of natural gas engines.

Fleets and owner-operators have long known that extending oil change intervals can lead to significant cost savings and environmental benefits.

There comes a point when technology can prove less than convenient.
