    I think it's just what they get the best deal on and how bad they need drivers .

    Even with the new fuel filters, the truck is still underpowered @bzinger ? What motor does it have in it, Detroit or Mercedes? Pretty sharp looking I must say!

    My old freightliner with a DD had the same problem pulling the hills, it was geared for fuel mileage. Are you headed back out today?
