I think you're right. Even though electronic in nature they seem to be pretty tough!

It is a work horse. I think folks tend to overlook these gems because they don't have the latest wiz bang but they are good runners.
Agree. The engines from this era are great runners, very reliable and generally bulletproof. And operating these engines with Legacy control (not to mention installing ERR AC Commanders in them) makes them even better. There's been discussion over the years about the TMCC/RS Geeps of this era, too. Great engines, and due to various factors, some of the best sounds ever to come out of a diesel engine.
