    2018 X15 450, 13 speed manual, o/o spec … 124K on the clock so far. 7.4 mpg over the life of the truck. Just starting to break in … pulls hills great, it's rare that I have to drop lower the 5th direct.

    Only issues were a bad turbo harness and turbo sensor in the first 30k. Replaced the cab mount bushings. Replaced the driver side fender mirror. And found bad DEF quality sensor last week, when I had it in for my annual check.

    Thanks all for the info. Mostly wanted to know in case I get a option on a 2019 international or a frieghtliner. Probably unlikely but it's nice to know what I would deal with. Would rather drive a Pete or kw myself

    brand new ‘19 LT here, interior isnt bad, but I’d trade away the whole sleeper for more power. Its so weak. If you see me doing 59 up some teeny tiny hill its not my fault.
