That's what I'm remembering too.
He traded his Cummins in for a 5 cylinder Sprinter, and then dumped the Sprinter a couple of weeks later because he didn't think it had enough power to tow the Dragon Boat.
"not enough power" is always subjective. *smiles* The Sprinter sure won't pull like the 6BT. But I suspect that a 300 HP 14 L Big Cam III Cummins in a loaded big truck will be even slower than the Sprinter with a heavy trailer. So does it not have enough power? Or is the driver not patient enough. *grin* _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
