Upgraded

Well after a long 40,000 miles I finally upgraded today and got a 2014 Prostar. Its just what I wanted although the color, purple, was certainly not my first choice. It has a lot more room then the Cascadia light weight, actually has two overhead cabinets for storage. Over all a very nice truck. No issues with room and for now im planning on leaving the passenger seat in. It looks like there is enough room between the seat and the bunk for a refrigerator or thermo cooler. I will post pics when I can if people want to see the this light weight.
Only question I have is that this has the engine that runs without def, which I thought International stopped using in 2013. I haven't heard anything good about these engines but ill keep you updated. Also if anyone can let me know about the maintenance schedule for this truck I would appreciate it.

 

So far I like the truck, good room and good features. Extremely quiet and a smooth ride. The only thing I dislike about it is the extremely weak engine break. Its more or less non existent. I could throw my feet out and drag them and that would have more of a breaking effect. It also doesn't engage as soon as you let of the throttle, you have to hit the break to engage it. And then it cuts off when you hit 1000 rpm. Seems like the boys at international could of at least tried to make the engine break work. Ill have to get used to it. Other then that I think its a good truck.

 

Haven't hit a decent downgrade yet since im on the northeast regional but ill shift down low on the first one I come across and get a feel for it.
