Other than the occasional FL run that's all I run are the flats of the midwest. Well I guess there are a few little hills running in Missouri and I have no intentions of go to the west or east coast so it'd work for me but he wants WAY to much for it.

A little pricey. It depends on how clean it is and if there's a warranty involved. It would work good for what you do.

I think in one of the many previous ebay runs it did over 17k and reserve was not met. At one time I believe there was a question about buy it now and he wanted $19,500. I personally think its a $10,000 truck, maybe $11,000 tops.

I have a 99 FL70, I had the Freightliner shop tweek the horsepower some and I also added a Stinger 5 unit, it made a huge difference, not so much at the light but on the hi ends of each gear you can hear the motor change pitch and it holds top speed pretty easily with out dropping when you hit the hills

Not sure what the HP eneded up at, the Stinger has a remote on/off key fob and it needs to be turned on each time you restart the motor, if you forget you quickly remember when you don't feel the extra power so whatever it is, its noticible
