Cummins or Caterpillar ?
They are both great diesels but does one have an advantage over the other? Or do you prefer one over the other?

They tried. Completely wrong answer as usual.
Cat quit making truck engines because;
1. They were having huge warranty claims with the ACERT engines.
2. They were losing huge amounts of market share, particularly to Cummins.
3. The combination of 1 and 2 rendered their truck engine operations unprofitable.
4. They were unable to meet 2010 emissions standards with their current (ACERT) technology.
Rear engine vehicles will cool as well as front, Greyhound has tested them for over a 9.65 billion miles.
