They're OK, nothing special. The wind noise from the flimsy doors is annoying, but can be cleaned up with adjustment a little bit. The screeching whistle from the wind on the mirror shells is annoying, too. Nice room though and makes for a great team truck. Cheap parts from the bone yards since they are so plentiful.

so they are that bad? they do break down quite a bit?

on a scale 1 to 10... 1 being the worst and 10 being the best... what would you scale at as?

I have heard a lot of horror stories about T 2000, but we have had 8 of them and they are all over a million. Yeah we have had some issues but no worse than any other million mile truck.

My '06 T2 has about 750k on it. Had a few minor problems over the last 18 mos, but nothing unreasonable. I get 7+ MPG, usually running whatever the speed limit is.
It does have an inherent problem with the door alignment and wind noise, most notably in a cross wind. The A/C system is adequate, at best, but passable for the most part.
Like most trucks, it has it's quirks, and the reliability is going to directly in relation to the care & maintenance, not to mention the care taken by the driver.
