I agree.. I used to work for Fedex express too, and what he is saying is true.. I flogged that truck daily, with no guides on EGT's, turbo spool, or any other gauges that we put in our trucks, and my personal truck had over 250k on all the orig. equipment. That being said, I would rather be safe than sorry with something that I paid almost $40,000 for.

Very true.. Fedex does have a lot of money, but there is something to be said for the fact that my personal fedex truck was driven over 250k by me, with TONS of starts and stops, and no major maintenance. I didn't ONCE fill out a repair log for that truck. It just got routine maintenance.
