    Boiler plate specs. Will be fine with those specs.

    That might be the Xe package. The Volvo dealership can bump that up to 455hp and have eco torque. What are they asking for the truck?.

    $65.000 you see the price alright or too much ?

    So with 455Hp will be sounds good and
    eco torque like you said ...
    If the dealership make it like you said it's gonna be included with Same price or extra charge ?

    You could try and negotiate for that to be included if you purchase that truck.

    Did you post the mileage of that truck? Another thing is will the truck come with full service history?

    Ok so the Xe package usually came with 425hp or 455hp as an option They are always Ishift and most come with 2.47 rear ends. Supose to be great for fuel economy.
    $65k for 459k miles. I think is on the high side. Keep looking

    Used truck market prices are down somewhat right now. Should be able to negotiate that price down some. Especially since boilerplate fleet type specs.
