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 cascadia over a prostar and day though.
Woobie Thanks this. -
I would take a Freightliner over that little Volvo you had T. The larger 780s are nice but you can have those 670s.
T_TRUCKER. and greenbee Thank this. -

T_TRUCKER. Thanks this. -
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.TennMan Thanks this. -
While they rush to be the fastest, i rush to be the slowest too. I rather they be up front than behind me were i can't see em.michaelg Thanks this.
