Your towing rigs and trailers

We have 2 Freighter medium duty straight trucks with the 5.9 and 6 speeds. No one will drive them. They are too gutless. We have some newer ones with the 12.7 Detroit and Allison's in them. Much better.
Yeah! double the displacement usually helps pep em up lol

I don’t know why most single axel dump trucks are so weak. You can find single axel tractors with 400-500 hp and a 10 speed. Most single axel dumps are half that power and a 6 speed. My 750 with a little 5.9 actually pulls pretty good. A lot better than the DT 466 trucks I’ve driven will do but it’s still no 10 liter pushing 500 hp and 1200 FP

Many single axle road tractors end up converted to s/a dumps for that very reason-much more power.
Also many vocational truck buyers don’t care about operator comfort or giving them the HP to drive faster.
