I have been at the controls for three blown RODS engines.
Hole in piston (dropped a valve) engine grenaded
Threw a valve rocker arm. Drove it home on 7 cylinders. Destroyed engine by doing that.
First big truck. 1993 FLD 120 with a 425 Caterpiller engine. The bond metal came off when piston cracked. Piece went thru turbo fins on exhaust side. Drove it 900 miles that way. $11,000.oo repair. In 1998. Probably would cost two to three times that these days.
That Freightliner looks legit.
