Engine Details Cummins Isb Cummins Isb Displacement: Typically 5.9 Liters (359 cu in) Cummins Isb Fuel System: High-pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel injection. Cummins Isb Power Range: Ranges from approximately 170 HP to 260 HP and 280 lb-ft to 520 lb-ft of torque, depending on application and tuning. Performance Engine Management: ECU (Engine Control Unit) controlled, supporting OBD-II diagnostics. 🔧 Transmission Standard Transmission Options Common: Allison 1000/2000 Series (automatic, for diesel engines), manual transmissions (e.g., Tremec/New Venture Gear) for gasoline or lighter duty applications. Optional Transmission Options Heavy Duty: Heavier duty Allison transmissions (e.g., 3000 Series) for higher GVWR models. Features Allison Transmission Features: Electronic controls, multiple driving modes (e.g., Economy, Power), predictive shifting, PTO provision (optional). Fluid Specifications Allison Transmission Fluid: Allison TES-295 approved fluid (e.g., Dexron III/VI compatible but TES-295 is preferred for extended service). 📐 Dimensions Weights Gvwr Range: Typically ranges from 14,500 lbs to 30,000+ lbs depending on the W series designation (e.g., W42, W52, W62, W72, W82). Curb Weight: Highly variable based on chassis configuration, engine, and body type. Exterior Wheelbase Options: Numerous wheelbase options available to accommodate various body lengths and applications. 🛡️ Safety Features Ratings NHTSA Ratings: Commercial vehicles of this class are not typically subjected to the same frontal/side crash testing and ratings as passenger cars. Focus is on structural integrity for commercial use. Active Features Braking Systems: Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear, often with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). Some heavier duty models may have air brakes or air assist. Passive Features Restraint Systems: Seat belts for all occupants, airbags (driver and passenger, depending on cab configuration and options). 💡 Technology Features Infotainment Infotainment Systems Availability: Basic AM/FM radio, CD player, auxiliary inputs were common.
