    I would like to know this too. Looking at buying one of their trucks. Any difference in the mpg between the 2009, 2010 or 2011 Cascadias?

    The current 'B' service schedule is every 40,000 miles. (Oil change, filters, normal maintenance)
    The 'A' is every 20,000 miles, (basically a check over, TP, fluid levels, etc)

    The company shops are so backed up, many drivers avoid getting a truck serviced at them, and some don't get the truck serviced at all.

    I don't know what the Cascadias get for MPG.

    i never worked for Crete, but i did drive a 2011 cascadia, it was governed at 62 MPH and i got about 5.5-6 MPG, pulling a flatbed. i had a manual trans (10 spd) and a dd15 motor
