    I’m looking for a used 48’ Fontaine. Probably a combo. I like the Revolution but I’m afraid I would be fighting the arched deck all time.

    Thanks. I refused to pay $150k from something with half a million miles on it. TMC is known for keeping the trucks in great shape. And they spec them really nice. Double bunks(wife refuses to sleep on the floor), disk brakes, X15, 13 speed manual, flat screen TV…..
    So what we have here is a 2016 700,000 mile 579 that looks like new inside and out, with a $26,000 in parts engine rebuild, rebuilt trans, new clutch, flywheel and pressure plate and 10 new virgin tires. And I’m into it for less than a 500k mile Cascadia.

    Congratulations are you gonna get your own numbers or lease on to someone else
    Hope you get alot of good miles outta of it
    I'm driving a 2015 x15 with about 940xxx on it and its doing great only thing I don't like about it is it run hot on the temp I heard getting the Def fix would help keep the temp down.

    What the hp on it is it the 605? performance one or the 5 something one?

    I’m going to run my own. It’s the smaller HP.
