    I would still get the ecm report run when I had a chance, just to see. Mileage just seems too low for an '06.

    Yea, either ecu / dash was changed or it was used for short high idle time work like a yard dog or something.

    I don't believe I like your tone. Your opening post was pretty generic.

    Kinda snappy to asking for advice, but not liking the one answer he got that absolutely could be legit.

    I hope he got lucky and stole a Peach w only 275k on it, but the odds are....

    My odometer shows 241,628 on a 07 model Freightliner. However I have paperwork for an overhaul at 700,000. I would get the ECM ran but whatever.

    What’s wrong with his tone? Don’t be sensitive. Dude asked a SIMPLE question and got a incorrect answer. Wait till it happens too you. I’m sure you’ll feel the same way.

    Being that excited goes to show that you are nervous as hell and you know deep down inside that that one guys post was legit about having over a million miles but chose to take the south road where others were saying go off your dash miles. Yeah sorry to tell you that truck has some miles on it. That’s not necessarily bad if you got it for a decent price. But if you got some sort of show room rig that has such low miles for that year for a cheap price, yeah merry Christmas to you
