    You keep saying "gently", go down and look at the used trucks. There was nothing i saw that was used "gently" get a new truck.

    So you put the money down & they basically put it in your maintenance account?

    If you get a new Freightliner can you pick any color?

    I knew they had those colors. Just curious if you got a new one if you could get other colors like with the KW.

    I got a 2013 Cascadia with about 225K on it. I've had absolutely no issues on it other than lights and a temperature sensor that went out. Sitting at around 330K now and still no problems. Of course it's luck of the draw but I figured by 200K most of the kinks of a new truck have been worked out already. Plus It was assembled in North Carolina which from what I've noticed is much better quality than the crap assembled in Mexico.
     
    freightwipper and RStewart Thank this.
