    For sale is my 2007 Volvo 780 with 609,377 miles. It has a D12 with 10 speed auto shift transmission. It is in really good condition and is well maintained. I put in a remanufactured transmission a year ago, new shift module, new A/C fan and controller, 2 new EGR's replaced 6 months ago. Most of the work has been done at the Volvo dealer. Steers are 50%, 6 drives are 60%, 2 are 35%. It is a double bunk with the table lower bunk. It has a new Dynasys APU that will stay with the truck for an additional $7K or I can take it out.

    I have a day job and don't have time to manage a company driver. This is the last truck in our fleet. I sold the rest last summer. The price listed is $10K to $20K below market value depending on where you look. I was going to lease it on with a company but the pay stinks so I'm just going to sell it rather than keep worrying about the bills. If you're interested, PM me. I can not carry the note on it so please don't ask.

    If anyone is interested in a smoking good deal on a Volvo 780, I just posted mine for sale in the classified section. Depending on where you look, I'm asking up to $10K to $20K below market. D12 with auto shift 10 speed, new EGR's, new tranny and shift module, new A/C blower & controller, etc. Well maintained. It has a new Dynasys APU on it that can be included. Heck, I'll even throw in the fridge, TV, microwave and CB. I have a $2,700 Qualcomm MCP200 in it as well.

    Trying to manage company drivers while keeping my day job is just too much so its time to let the last of the fleet go. I can not carry a note on it but if you know anyone interested, I'm open to reasonable offers. The truck is located in Los Angeles, CA.

    I've had this truck almost 2 years. Yes, the xy shifter was replaced. D12 465. Probably 70k on tranny and clutch. Other than those things mentioned, never had any problems with this truck. I pm between 10K and 15k miles. Yes, it has air front suspension.

    Depends on the driver. When he keeps his foot out of it and slows down, with 80K LBS, 7.5 is possible but running western 11 its usually 6.5 with the mountains. When he's standing on it WFO, I can tell because he'll show 5.5 on the QC performance monitor and I'll call him. Came back from Denver empty one time and got 9.5mpg. I was surprised.

    See, it's the same truck as yours. You really want another one? I know that price is good though... Very tempting.. Had I not had to overhaul last fall I'd probably be all over this one been a while since I seen a late model priced that low.

    tomkarose, how many miles on the odometer??? That is what we were all thinking "if the miles aren't too high"
