    We have Cascadias as sub trucks and they will almost assuredly be our next lease trucks.. We have gotten International Prostars and our previous lease was with Internationals but before the prostars came out.. I think the Intertnational Prostars in every category are complete and utter cheap JUNK! So to each his own, but we had a sub truck come in and it had fewer miles than the Cascadia sub truck and the thing was a complete floppy, underpowered, rattle trap.

    Freightliner has come long way ! Western star will almost surly be the best made . Every body else will be fighting for second . This one is 2 years old this month(in service date)and just hit 301k and quit as my Mercedes E class. Have had two rattles , pass seat , was a quick fix, and my tv converter box rattles. One was. Vendor part( seat) and one was/is my fault. Tight as day one! And may be in that second place spot? One of the best made I have driven in 21 years. And about only make I have to driven(US legal) was the Mormon . Sure I am over looking some of the other brands time has taken from us.

    I have an O/O aquaintance who couldn't wait to buy a Western Star.. one year he did.. and only later realized that with Western Star comes the Western Star special parts and waiting on their (then) lack of a parts network. He got rid of the wester star and went back to KW..

    Answer is simple. The Columbia's/Centruys are being sent to the pasture like the FLD.
