Help with truck Id

[Bjmca]

Have to say I think these trucks are awesome and probably really nice to drive with all the creature comforts inside. However that being said the new trucks and new EPA guidelines seem to be making these motors very unreliable now. I go into many truck repair shops for my job and most problems are now related to wiring corrosion , egr systems, and regeneration systems.

When you see a bunch of late model trucks having major repairs with less than 30,000 miles on then it makes me wonder if all that extra cab space is so they can carry around a fleet of mechanics with them.

As far as I have been told and seen, new EPA regulations do not apply to these trucks because they are military vehicles. The new Canadian trucks have no EGR/exhaust systems on them as they could cause problems for a vehicle in theater.

I am sure it would not be hard to bend a few pipes to put an exaust on!!

You could buy a RXT or CXT for civilian use.

I loved driving the FL-80’s. They had comfortable air ride seats , the AC worked great, and they had an good am/fm stereo. It is not the greatest picture of the driver’s view but they have great visibility with the sloped hood and huge mirrors. I would rather drive a FL-80 through city traffic than the 1 ton Chevy’s we had.
