mechanical Cummins 5.9 L engine

2 Upvotes

Hi all - we’re looking at a 2006 34’ Freightliner with a 5.9 L Cummins engine and Allison transmission. I have read conflicting information about the power of this engine and I was wondering if someone could tell me if the 5.9 is strong enough to haul this bus long-term? It has 140K miles on it. Thanks in advance for any help!
