    Many trucks are 505 from factory but companies turn them down to 455 or lower

    freightliner says its 400 at 1600 rpm. So if it was tuned to 505, would you not buy it?

    I asked for the sticker on the engine to see the HP. But it looks like when he bought the truck from Freightliner, they had already increased it since he shower me his Invoice from when he bought the Truck

    That's a good mileage to hour ratio, but I wouldn't mess with anything that has been turned up.
