    i was at a company that was running those petes and the mechanics said it was a shame that peterbilts name was on them . I would be worried about the engine swap .i like detroits good fuel mileage but what kind of warranty ?

    i would be afraid of this one it had to been hit hard enough to hurt the motor enough to replace it i bet they changed the trany that truck also has no factory ...warranty and i bet it had frame damage
    that is a ticking timebomb

    if you dont run cali, if your going to keep it for ever it might be a good choice. what kind of warranty is on the driveline ? was never a fan of gliders.

    i ran a new coronado from fitzgerald it was nice but it had engine problems...if your going to keep it for ever

    what is forever...until it blows up...or until you get sideswiped in the winter and end up in a ditch....or some idiot backs into it in a truck stop...these are reasons why i wouldn't want a new truck..i dont think i could ever spend $150k for a new truck...but i do like that 08 mack......
