    I personally think that a freightshaker is very reliable, although I've only been in one and it was brand new and i only put 40k on it, so what i do know about the cascadias VS KW or volvo is the quality, my freightshaker did rattle and had an air leak on the driver door, also the cabinets were a little cheap, the overall feel of a freightliner is cheap, just my opinion, i do think they are reliable trucks and thats all that matters when it comes down to it, but I've driven everything but a peterbuilt, and the best truck I've been in as far as comfort and convenience would be the KW and a very close 2nd would be the volvo.

    I would take a Freightliner over that little Volvo you had T. The larger 780s are nice but you can have those 670s.

    I drove an older Volvo in truck driving school.
    It was either an 04-05..
    They look pretty much exactly the same today.
    Dated trucks
    The ride is nice though

    Ah I was only speaking to the ones built in Mexico, as I clarified. I was hung a few times because of wiring harness problems

    I drove with Roehl for 10 months then applied with Schneider for their choice program. They approved me with less than 1 year OTR experience and I went with a 2015 T680 and drove Team Choice.

    Now I was just approved for a 2016 T680 and will be going with solo Choice starting June 15th out of Charlotte. Choice is the only way to go in my opinion. We grossed $6800 per week running team and Solo choice Gross $2500 - $5000 from the drivers I know.

    I was approved with Lone Mountain and my local Kenworth Dealership but Schneider Finance had the better deal and warranty etc.

    Does anyone know if Schneider Finance still offers two free skip lease payments? Last year they offered it and was a great surprise at closing. I do know that they confirmed the $3,000 trac match. Thanks
