Freightliner Coronado

I am also curious if this truck is anything different than Cascadia except body

 

i broke down 5 times in a freightliner because of the def system sensors making my engine quit running doing 65 miles an hour , then i would have no power steering while coasting onto the shoulder. the mecanics computer said it wasnt spraying enough exaust fluid and the flex pipe was on slightly curved and it caused junk to clog up. international has a exaust system that doesnt need DEF, you save money by not buying exaust fluid everytime you fuel and you wont break down because the exaust fluid computer or sensors are messed up. i drove a international lone star at smith transport and it rides smooth and turns like a international 9400i and i didnt have to spend $500 a week on DEF at the fuel island

 

$500 per week on Def

 

I dont know much about the Internationals except the massive problems they had intialy. Correct me if I'm wrong but they went with massive EGR valves instead of DPF and the maxforce engine was (is?) a dud. Ive heard good thing about the int's with cummins tho

as far as the Coronado goes.. I've heard they dont have the samcab module, which is a huge bonus considering the problems the cascadia has with them. The Samcab issues(and cost to repair or replace) is what kept me from buying a cascadia

 

Class 8 International trucks have Cummins and N13 (new label for MaxxForce). Both engines are SCR and use DEF. MaxxForce without SCR all but bankrupt Navistar. Freightliner Coronado came out several years before the Cascading.

 

Sorry, can't help you there.
