    My Volvo is an 04 I bought in 06 with 530k on it with Volvo 465 HP d12. It has 1.46 mill on it now. Never been towed never broke down. The most expensive repair was 2 egr valves..2300 at Volvo. In 9 yrs I have spent maybe 15k on it including tires brakes drums and the egr's...no motor work 1 injector replaced and 1 turbo. The blades on turbo were slightly bent so I replaced it. It was still working fine. One overhead at 1.1 mill. Still rides looks and handles good. Fuel mileage 6.5-7.5 pulling heavy (reefer) I would not trade it for ANY TRUCK PERIOD.
