I got one of the '13 Prostars last year just hit 162k and no major problems. Got my auto-start and no DEF to deal with. I just miss the APU from my old Columbia. Been on reefer since I signed on

Currently my jakes won't hold me coming down a hill (such as outside Yuma) while empty. Grapevine, Cabbage, etc. are going to be very interesting at 80,000#... -

When I switched from a Freightliner to a Prostar, the maintenance tech who went over the truck with me told me that the jake on the Prostar is much weaker than what's on the Freightliner (just the way it's designed), and to be prepared for that. It's definitely a lot quieter. While it is not as strong, it still has a decent amount of braking action (when on its highest setting, anyway). Definitely get it checked at another terminal.
