Best Answer

Typically, displacement. A semi truck is technically a tractor.

The infamous Cummins 5.9 direct injection diesel of Dodge Ram pickup fame was originally developed for farm tractor applications. Displacement of tractor motors may vary, dependent on size, function, etc. For a road tractor, 11 - 16 litre displacement is typical (most in the 12.7 - 14.6 litre range), whereas a dump truck may be likely to have lower motor displacements, but could also have just as high a displacement as a road tractor, dependent on how the truck is specified.

I want to put some tractor trucks up for sale?

You can either list your tractor trucks for sale in the classified ads section of your local newspaper, or another vehicle related publication, or you can contact an auctioneer about selling your tractor trucks. Keep in mind, that if you do use an auctioneer, a portion of the proceeds will be used to pay the auctioneer for his services. Most auctioneers charge a commission fee equal to between 20% and 30% of the item's sale price.


How long does an engine last in a diesel highway tractor?

Typically, a well maintained semi tractor engine will last between 800,000 and 1.2 million miles. This all depends on proper maintenance!! I have operated a semi tow truck for the last 11 years, and I've seen it go both ways. Neglect will kill a big diesel fast!! But for the most part, any over the road tractor, with less then 400,000 miles is still relatively young. Neglected trucks can have engine failure as soon as 500,000.
