    I know people said they did but can't remember what they said. Should be searchable though.

    I think I've put about 60k on it so far. Got it at 400k. I mainly run the south and Midwest, the truck is perfect for the application in my opinion. Also, I have an apu and never idle the truck more than a few minutes.
     
    Wheeeeelsss Thanks this.

    The one I had wasn't a bad truck. 2012.

    It had injector seals and the famous lower radiator crack. Around 300k. A few hoses.
    Dpf clean. 3 year lease deal. It got traded for dd15. So that's all I can offer.

    I started with the company and truck had 150k i think it was.. The next truck had 1500 miles. But it was dd15. I left the company at 165k.

    Flatbed and up to 84k. Mostly western regional.
