    I have been looking at a lot of Freightliner Coronado Gliders and have noticed their paint quality is really poor and some trucks that are only 4 year olds are flaking/bubbling on the body on top of the bunk and cab light panels. Is their paint/primer prep and quality that bad? Makes me rethink wanting to buy one.

    It’s not just the Coronado cascadias do the same thing but so did the 2019 579 I drove.

    Wow, the quality has really gone down on everything. I thought Paccar products would have some better quality. Seems like every 2 3 years you have to get the chassis repainted but the body is a different story.
