On January 6, 2015, more than 200 Dongfeng truck users came to the competition site in the “Xinlong Tianlong Brothers, a Good Driver in China” Tianlong pilot's Xining division. The China Truck Network reporter found that after the 60s and 70s, the old drivers were mostly young drivers after the 80s opted for the Dongfeng Cummins engine , and even a generation of truckers used the Dongfeng Cummins engine.

Truck drivers are their second home for long-term truckers. Whether this mobile home can work well or not, the engine is the key. In the increasingly competitive and heavy-duty power market, how Dongfeng Cummins can meet the transportation needs of several generations of truck users. In response, the reporter was very curious and tried to find answers from several users.

Forty-day freight transportation Dongkang security

Gao Zhanyun, a Hui national, is 65 years old this year. It has been engaged in freight transportation for 40 years. From the first engine to now it has been using the Dongfeng Cummins engine.

Why do you say that only the Dongfeng Cummins engine is safe? The simple Hui old man told reporters two stories. In the 80s of the last century, Gao Zhankai’s “Consumer”, Ba Pingchai (this is the first turbocharged product since Cummins entered China, and has strong dynamics against the thin air in the highlands). It transports flour from Qinghai to Shaanxi for transportation. There was no problem with the engine running to 1 million kilometers, and a transport accident did not occur. In the 80's, the Dongfeng Cummins Engine achieved 1 million kilometers without major repairs! This is a standard that many heavy-duty engines are still difficult to achieve. This has become a shining point in Lao Gao's cargo career. In the Northwest freight market, it also set a record for the first engine to reach 1 million kilometers without major repairs. The name of Lao Gao is mentioned today, and nobody in the freight circle knows.

Apart from glorious life, there are dark moments. Gao Zhanyun does not shy away from talking about his loss. "Because of the use of a certain brand of engine, not only minor problems, but also a serious accident when driving a certain section of the mountain road, the car destroyed a little bit of dead ..." Lao Gao did not elaborate, but can be seen There was still a lingering fear of mentioning this matter, showing that the accident left a mark in his heart.

Safety first, earning money is second, becoming the most important experience in his transportation career. Since then, Laogao only trusted the Dongfeng Cummins engine. Such trust continued until his next generation, and now the sons and sons of the high family use the Dongfeng Cummins engine. It is not just the experience of the old generation's car. In the new generation of truck drivers, they also feel the guarantee of the reliability and safety quality of Dongfeng Cummins.

Lao Gao's son is also an expert in freight forwarding. His career is even greater. He is no longer confined to the northwest region, and the freight route has expanded to areas such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen. In this regard, Lao Gao is very proud and very reassuring. “He is now driving the Dongfeng Cummins 375-horsepower Dragon car. There is no problem with the Dongfeng Cummins engine. There is a guarantee of freight and the car quality is good. The family can rest assured that they It is also safe to work."

The trust of Dongfeng Cummins Engine by two generations of freight forwarders also proves that Dongfeng Cummins has always adhered to the production concept of producing products from the perspective of users and maximizing the interests of users.

Take the Dongkang Engine to a Rich Road

Under the premise of ensuring safety, how to make money and make more money has become a topic of concern for truck drivers. The proper way for a gentleman to take advantage of finances is to rely on real skills. In response, Yang Haisheng, a 80-year-old truck driver, explored a road to get rich with the Dongfeng Cummins engine.

In 2010, a large number of infrastructure projects in Xining City continued to work. Yang Haisheng saw the market opportunity of dump trucks and purchased a 340 hp Dongfeng Hercules equipped with Dongfeng Cummins. The operation of this engine completely exceeded Yang Haisheng’s original estimate. 24 hours a day, vehicle rest time is up to 3 hours. Dongfeng Cummins Engine keeps running at high speed for at least 21 hours every day. It is said that 30 tires were run down in one year. No problem occurred. What he did not expect was that the car earned more than 300,000 yuan, and there were plenty of loans.

Three years later, the car made a full profit of nearly 1 million yuan, and 1 million was the richest man in their village, and the crops could not earn so much for decades. Since then, Yang Haisheng’s house has been renovated and a second child is required. The people in the village have cast their envious eyes.

Yang Haisheng thanked his father for helping him choose Dongfeng Cummins. Yang Haisheng’s father is an old truck driver. Yang Haisheng’s choice to drive a truck is also deeply influenced by his father. Before buying a new car, he found his father to discuss. The old father only said such a sentence: "This truck equipped with an "Ohio" was not bad when I opened two trucks at that time. According to common sense, this thing is stronger than the one we used. There should be nothing wrong with choosing the "consumer." Father's experience And experience gave him enough confidence. He firmly chose to carry the Dongfeng Cummins 340 hp Dongfeng Hercules dump truck.

Facts have proven that my father was right about the choice of Dongfeng Cummins. Yang Haisheng took advantage of Dongfeng Cummins to embark on a rich road. Today, in the mind of Yang Haisheng, Dongfeng Cummins is no longer an engine brand, but is the driving force to help him get rich and move toward happiness.

The freight sluggish Dongkang save money is king

In the past two years, the days of opening trucks for transportation have not been so good. The state has ruled over the strict management of the ultra-strict management, increased the number of trucks to increase goods, and the freight rate has continued to decline. The transport business of truck users is even more difficult. How can we get more profit under low freight rates?

In this regard, Ma Chenglong, who has been engaged in truck transportation for eight years, talked about the way of choosing a car: “The current selection of vehicles involves the use of low-maintenance vehicles. The biggest cost of vehicle operation is the maintenance cost. For example, I’m using Dongfeng Cummins 375 now. The horsepower of Tianlong, using one and a half years down compared to other engines, Dongfeng Cummins repairs the lowest cost."

The Dongfeng Cummins 375-horsepower engine is the third Dongfeng Cummins engine used by Ma Chenglong. Since he entered the truck transportation industry, he has been in contact with Dongfeng Cummins. For eight years, Dongfeng Cummins Engine has become a member of his family. He knows the engine of this brand, how to maximize the value of this engine, how to solve the problem, transport Where there is a service station on the route, how to purchase accessories is convenient, and he is fully aware of this.

Recalling a year and a half ago, more than a dozen people went to buy a truck. Ma Chenglong and two other friends insisted on choosing the Dongfeng Cummins 375-horsepower engine. After more than a year of comparison, he found that using the Dongfeng Cummins engine saved more than 10,000 yuan in maintenance costs, which further strengthened his choice. Saving more than 10,000 pieces is equivalent to making more than 10,000 pieces. In the sluggish state of the freight industry, it is very large to earn more than 10,000 blocks of difficulty.

When busy, he often returned home 3-4 months. In order to better raise a child and a woman, he wanted to earn more money while still young. This car and an engine cherish the hope of his life, carrying the family and the children's future dreams of happiness.

Safe, reliable and profitable, Qinghai generations of truck users love Dongfeng Cummins Engine. In their hearts, Dongfeng Cummins is no longer just an engine brand, but a good partner that can bring security, trust, and happiness.
