Message:: [QUOTE="SpiritWolf, post: 3957323, member: 89863"]Well. I did it. Pulled the trigger Thursday, and dropped most of my savings into a truck. Shes a Black 2009 Volvo 780, D13, Ishift, with 598k miles. Waited around yesterday for most of the day for paperwork to be dealt with, and now Im rolling bobtail towards Missoula to get markings and the rest installed. Im told she will be truck #3892 once wearing markings. So far so good, put 200 miles on her Friday evening since I got such a late start in the day. She drives REALLY nice. smoother than any of the company trucks I have run. Currently indicating 14.6mpg running 65mph bobtail. The dealer guarantees everything will be working when you buy a truck from them. OTHER than the APU and inverter... Well, my APU is running sweetly, but the built in inverter is dead.  Also had my battery protection trigger last night within minutes of shutting the truck off. So Im going to have W/S take a peak at my batteries when I get to Missoula. Other than that, everything works, and the truck is running well. to soon to really have much of an opinion about the living arrangements in a 780, but so far Im loving the table set up. Although sleeping in the top bunk is going to take a bit of getting used to.[/QUOTE]
