~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
February 21st 2008
«< Prevost received notification from Detroit Diesel that Daimler AG plans to discontinue selling
Detroit Diesel engines to companies outside of the Daimler family.
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< Beginning in 2010 Detroit Diesel will no longer be active in the Motor Coach market or the
Fire Truck market in North America except for businesses owned by Daimler.
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< Detroit Diesel has assured Prevost that they will fully support all of their vehicles equipped
with Detroit Diesel engines now and in the future (certainly the same with Newell Owners)
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< It is unfortunate that Daimler has decided to take some of the choices away from coach ow-
ners and operators in North America.
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< And Yep ! Owners of 'Prevost Car,' 'Volvo Bus Corporation,' must have humongous smiles.
It's actually time to introduce their D13 engine from the Volvo’s family ! "Hmmmmmm ! ! !"
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< As I Mentioned in an earlier post CLICK HERE Prevost had introduced the 'Volvo D13.' But
this engine lacks of power !
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< The 13-liter engine is smaller and lighter in weight and delivers more torque in the very low
range, torque of 1650 ft-lbs, but seems they will have to play with the power train.
> Prevost : "This is step one in our systematic changeover to a complete Volvo power train."
~~~~~~~~~~~'NewellClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'Newe llClassic.com'~~~~~~~~~~~
«< I guess 'All Motorhome Companies' have or will receive this News.
