    It's also an 08' with 471,800 miles. I already love it. Rides so much better then my old 06' Century. Have all the controls on the steering wheel. Normal wiper switch (absolutely hated the toggle switch bs). Good headlights. Tight transmission.

    So nice. I did get excited for a second when I first saw the side of it because it looks like it had side doors, but its only stamped into the side of the panel lol

    No cruise or engine exhaust brake on the steering wheel of the Centuries? I do remember the effed up wipers on the training trucks though. Does yours say "Schneider REGIONAL" on the side like mine? That's one thing I don't like on my truck. I'm not regional.

    Yep, Schneider Regional. The centuries don't have any controls on the steering wheel, there all on the dash.

    Had a trailer tire blow out on me in heavy traffic. Two cars went over my tire shreads and pulled over. One took a picture of my insurance then took off, the other stuck around and called the cops to report a claim. The cop wasn't too happy when he showed up and found out that no contact was made between our vehicles and that the guy only ran over the shredded tire. He told the guy that you can't file a claim if you hit a blown out tire as its impossible to predict when they will blow.

    Now I'm just waiting for roadside. At least I'll probably miss rush hour through Portland.

    Sounds like the cop was on your side of the matters. Sorry you're having a day.
