    Then I think to myself, what's an inframe and aftertreatment worth. With 500k on the clock its coming up quick if it hasn't already been done.

    Don't lease .. get financial backing from your local bank.

    Look for a truck with low idle hrs and a Apu . Most those 30 to 40 k trucks have very high idle hrs , the ppl getting 800 - 900 k out of these engines have a apu . I have seen dd15s with 1million miles but key was low idle hrs .
