Looking at getting back into my own truck. Have looked at mostly Cats and Cummins, but have noticed a lot of late model Volvo and Freightshakers with low mileage for reasonable prices. Most have MBE (Freightiners) and VED 12 (Volvo). Anyone know anything about these two engines? Don't know too much about the MBE. Have heard the VED is a good engine but expensive to work on. How's the durability on both or either engine?
Also any input on Freedomline transmissions?
