FLD 120 or Classic??? I need your help

PrevEGR 14 L is a great motor, but, unless that 04 is an 03 build date, it's an EGR engine.....either way Id take the FLD!!!

 

Why not a 84 inch bunk? You can get creative with the custom long term layout on a factory bunk of that size.

 

Why not indeed. The FLD 120's bunk is a very large one of it's time. The Freighliner XL came after around 1998. THAT bunk was larger that year. Any time you have more space you are golden. If I recall the 120's bunk had a room big enough for two a bed large enough to be a twin, spot for TV, a desk over a cooler that could be fit underneath and under the TV to the right would be a closet to hang pants and shirts etc with a laundry bag below. Under the bunk across the floor was a storage box that wont quit between the side boxes. And there was a foldaway upper berth and upper windows which were either good for venting or introducing CO2 gas until you learned to park upwind. The cab had a skylight above standing room everywhere.

A full sleeper like that was a palatial castle for a single and more than enough for a team. Our 2001 century had a full sleeper as well, but I think and suspect that particular Century was actually smaller than the FLD 120

 

Emissions crap. Ugh.

Don't look at me. Im a old school engine man. If you are gonna choke a engine with emissions crap, get the biggest horse you can to compenstate I would think.

 

Well, do you see yourself being able to commit to Schnieder for 1-5 years depending on the lease/truck you choose. If you read the Choice threads in the Schnieder sun forum, they seem okay but to each his own.

 

if you buy emissions engine, get brand new for the warranty.....you'll need it.....
