Well I bought the Volvo. My first ever real truck purchase from a dealer. D13 engine. 482K. It's the 500HP variety, which is a lot more than I will ever need, as I'm into squeezing fuel. 10 speed OD.
God I hope I can squeeze 6.5 to 7 out of it.

It's a former Penske truck. Very well maintained. It spent very little time in the shop. Don't think it was gorilla driven, clutch and gears are pretty tight for 500K. Just hope it gets good MPG.
