    Well due to new ELD law i didnt want to install sh%%t in my 04 Volvo so i bought 99 T2 with 3406E and 13 speed with 570k miles. Its 260" WB but who cares. Im getting 6.7 MPG compared to 6.5 MPG on Volvo, both 475 HP and 1850 TQ. T2 is running good. Good investment. Changed a few things like brakes and shocks and did 10k miles since April 1st. Much more room in sleeper than in VNL 670 and better ride due to long WB. No complaints
    Truck is running strong with without using any fluids
    Here is a few pics

    Good looking truck. Not an eld fan either. I too dumped my 2012 for a '93 at the beginning of the year & couldn't be happier. Hope it works out well for you..
