The size is great and the 88 MPH top speed is fantastic for the western states. Yes it is 4wd, I often use 4 low when climbing grades to keep the trans cool. The truck sees a LOT of idle time, (service truck 7000lb crane, hydraulic compressor) there's about 5000 hrs on it in 4 years. Melted the DPF and SCR Cat, upon further inspection #3 injector failed and took out that cylinder. About 130,000 miles at the time. $22,000 for a longblock, turbo, DPF filter, SCR cat and the associated sensors.
