poor farmer/logger Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I like Chase, it’s been interesting to follow him along through his journey with his electric trucks. Just a couple of good ol boys taking on the giants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dale560 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I will give them a thumbs up. They designed it with no egr cooler and only passive regen. As far as repair most things have gotten to be unit replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-301066460puller Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I drive a '20 Cascadia with the 12 speed detroit in it. Been trouble free so far. Just don't try and take off fast. Not the freightliner tho... what junk.... I'm 6'5" with marginal knees, trucks a day cab, I wouldn't be able to do what I do without autoshift.

Only passive regen and no EGR cooler is a positive. 23 to 1 compression ratio should make it a good cold starter and a fixed geometry turbocharger means less moving parts to get caboned up and stuck. I wonder if their wiring harness issues are resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will use twice as much def per mile though and guess where all that comes from….China Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
