    So I am looking at this truck to buy. It's a 2015 Volvo. 1.1mil km (683 miles) has D13 AUTOMATIC I shift Transmission. 3.36 full lockers.
    Seems good truck has current safety for 6 more months.
    My biggest concern is it has been deleted . Should I be concerned about this ? Or are there other things to be more concerned about.

    Thanks SDF

    With that delete, chances of you getting it serviced at any Volvo dealer are slim to none.

    Depends where you're at. You mentioned the mileage in KM so I'll assume Canada. Lots of trucks in the west are deleted.

    Yes I'm was not in the market for a deleted truck. But are there any problems that may arise from it. It will save me 15k where I don't need to get an APU.

    I would only buy a deleted truck if I absolutely, positively knew that the reputation of the tuner is excellent. Too many hacks trying to sell their tunes. Not worth the risk, IMHO.

    Mods...correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe discussion of deletes is endorsed by TTR, correct?
