You know that Orion Bus Industries is also owned by Daimler Chrysler too, and their probably more than likely too be the only buses to get powered with Detroit Diesels. But as far as the MCI Buses it looks like it will be the Cummins ISX engine, because the ISL is probably not big enough to fit in the MCI's.
If NJT should purchase more MCIs which is probable for next year, they will be DD15 powered because Caterpillar C13s & Cummins ISMs will be history next year.
I drive a 2004 Ford Glaval Cutaway with the 6.0 litre International engine and I have nothing but problems with EGR. Have to rev the engine and watch the exhaust until it blows clear. Happens at least once a month. While she's in the shop, I'm driving an older Cutaway with the 7.3 litre and she runs great with no smoke. But the DDEC engines are my favorites.
I like the Caterpiller C13. But the Detroit Diesel Series 60 DDEC 2 is my favorite. When the EGR came around, that kill it. Look it what happen to the Series 50 when they put EGR in it. They should of left both engines the way they were. The same problems the had with the series 50, now it happening to the series 60. The EGR made the the engines worst they blew out a whole lot more smoke than the orginals did.
I'm sorry guys, but the Series 60 will fare way better than the C13 any day. The Series 60 will outpull and outlive, I'm a Series 60 guy and I love the sound of the motor, of course my favorite is post 2002 before the EGR. Go Detroit!

CAT C13 is a great engine, but Detroit Diesel DD15 is better. I'm sure that in 2010, MCI Buses will be DD15 powered

The EGR is nothing but trouble.

You can't go wrong with an NJT with either a Detroit Diesel 60 or Caterpillar C13, they both sound great.

How are the C13's cleaner that the Detroit? By law they both meet the same EPA regs?

Caterpillar C13 are 10x better than DD60s, they sound so much better than the DD60 as well and cleaner to the environment.
