    My company has been leasing International LTs with X-15 Cummins from Ryder, we got a bunch in 2019 that are all over 500k miles, I drove one last week that had 750k on the odometer. And that’s with Ryder’s 80k service interval. They’ve been pretty much bulletproof for us.

    That X15 has roughly 5k miles on it and the engine put a view window in the block when it all came apart.

    I’ll add that we’ve also been buying new Kenworth T680s with the Paccar motor and they’ve been a service nightmare, particularly with the injectors.

    I find that the majority of guys who like cabovers are guys who never drove one. Worse ride, crawling around in the sleeper, laying down to get dressed.

    You're talking the old coe. The Argosys from 99 and 2000 have no doghouse. They have the same condo sleeper that other FLs had. And the ride is a lot nicer. Don't get me started on the turning radius.
