Diesel machinery hauling truck- is this mileage too high ?

Posted by D. Thomas [ Beaufort, SC] on August 15, 2002 at 07:44:19 from (12.146.237.29):

A 1995 Freightliner FL70 with 190hp Cummins diesel, 6 spd., has perked my interest. A Ryder or Penske long term lease truck, it has 240,000 miles. I know for the true "big rigs" that much mileage, assuming mainly interstate hauling with proper maintenance, is not all that much, but what about on a "straight truck"...could there easily be another 100K on this thing before major overhaul of various components or would that be a rarity ?
