[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1116684, member: 28388"] They ended up red tagging my regular 2010 workhorse p700 for like 2 weeks. In the mean time I've been driving a bunch of spares and I think I actually like one of the spares better. The spares were late 90s 700s diesel with spicer transmission OR 2006 freightliner diesel automatic. I hate the spicers....but I absolutely love the 7 year old freightliners even better than the 2010 workhorses. It has some power...I think turbo diesel because it has that whistle. It has a lower step than the workhorse, larger cargo area, rear door slides horizontally instead of the barn doors that open out and the ride is incredible. The workhorse is so rigid and you feel every bump but the freightliner appears to have shock absorbers in the front instead of just leaf springs. The freightliner hesitates a little at first but doesnt have that annoying torque that can empty your shelves. Only downside of the freightliner is that step down at the back of the cargo area. I keep forgetting its there and almost killed myself 4 times today. ;) [/QUOTE]
