Lol. It is a red isx that's all I know at this point. I will call cummins customer service with vin number but they're not going to tell me if it is a crap model. It has 600000 miles and a second apu. Don't want to buy hard parts to get hp increase. I am going to need to pay to have someone help me with the hp and to correct manufacture defects. I am in west palm and the truck is in Tampa I will get over to see it this afternoon

its a CM871. Best engine cummins has made so far. -- of course, that does not mean the one your looking at is not in bad shape. A trip to Mr. hags up in atl may be in order to help get it road ready again.
