    It's hit or miss with swift trucks. I've had 6 year old 500k+ mile volvo that smelled like piss inside, and a <1 year old volvo with 40k miles that was all chromed out (it was previously part of some promotional advertising something or another before i got into it). I'm currently in a '13 cascadia with 75k miles. Have also had #### near everything in between. I'm out of fontana where we have to turn in our truck for anything more than a 34hr reset, so i end up with a lot of different stuff.

    Are all Swift trucks 10 speed or all different styles?

    The majority seem to be 9 speed (8 speed + Lo), but there is a few automatics floating around.

    The 2012 Volvo day cabs are 10 speed as well. Once in a great while I have to get into one of the older Freightliners which are 8 speed. Coming out of 4th in the F/L I will try to go to where 6th is in the Volvo. I manage to get over my senility fairly quickly!

    Do all of Swift trucks have cruise control?
