    From experience I can tell you that you will always regret not spec ing a truck proper to the job you do. A highway truck will fall apart in a vocational application.

    That being said. A heavy spec truck that's been beat all to heck offroad won't necessarily be a better choice than a truck that's specd to haul toilet paper but been well cared for.

    Oh trust me i do like the international. But i want to address both options and see which one would benefit me more. I like Volvos as they are comfortable. And the Volvo would get me 6-6.5 mpg compared to the 5-5.5 with the international. Plus bigger sleeper in the Volvo. Would rather check both routes out then just jump into something
