Snowman,
I am far from a professional, so take my advice with a grain of salt. that being said, I have a question. Why are you set on the 4300? I had my mind set on an International too, until I test drove a 4300 over a weekend. To there benefit they have: solid and quiet cab, good looking truck, the DT466 is solid, and the interior fit and finish was great. The thing I could not get past was the ride. I drove both air and spring ride 4300s and they shook the fillings out of my teeth. I don't know why, but the FL60 I ended up buying (spring ride) rides better than either of the 4300s. the freightliner is louder inside and not as pretty, but I can fix those things. I am not experienced enough to make a MDT ride smoother. Just interested.

One man's opinion,
Doc Weaver
