If you were to get an 18 and 19 or maybe a brand new truck but no Peterbilt or Kenworth what are the third and fourth brand and model you would go for and why and what qualifies as low kilometers these days on an 18 or 19 year truck. also is buying a former fleet truck a really really bad idea or just not such a good idea.. my boss of a small fleet less than 10 trucks is looking to buy two or three new ones or newish ones I'm trying to help him out because I'll be driving one
No Pete's or Ken's .third choice?

Every thing seems pretty good new. The problem is Volvo’s turn into turds in a couple of years. Please check used truck price it will confirm my opinion.
