2019 Freightliner Cascadia VS 2019 Volvo | SEMI TRUCK REVIEW | Which Is BEST? | Most RELIABLE?

[@cesarpalmos8235]

Both beautiful trucks! Im a fleet mechanic and our company, has about 90% frieghtliners, mainly for reliability and affordability. We have roughly 1 thousand frieghtliners with dd15 505hp and the detroit trans and diffs. We only had 1 truck needing a new transmission. As far as reliability, drivetrain wise, it's very reliable. Around 5% had A few issues with coolant leaks on the air compressor lines, but they came out with new steel lines to settle it once and for all. Around 10% ..the oil pan gaskets leaks, most of the time it was fixed simply by tightening the bolts, only a couple needed the gaskets replaced at 500k+. Around 30% needed the injector connector tube seals replaced...easy fixes. Around 75% needed the Nox sensors replaced at 400k. The only bad thing, for some reason, around 95% of the trucks have loosening leaf spring hanger bolts. We simply tighten them every BPM. But we never found the issues until we noticed the bolts were half way out at around 100k. Major safety concern if not checked. We only ever had 2 engines replaced on the entire fleet at around 30ok because the compressor coolant lines would leak and the drivers would continue driving them with no coolant. However, even when overheating for hundreds of miles or even a couple thousand miles, those Detroit's always got them back home.

Was this on 2019 trucks or older models?

[@Ricchmic]

What year models are these and are they advisable for owner operator start up?

[@peachesjohnson9387]

Thanks for the info

[@cesarpalmos8235]

@@TruGame. Yes, 2019 and older models. Almost all issues were resolved in the later models.

[@cesarpalmos8235]

@@Ricchmic The best years in my opinion was 2020-2022. I would high recommend the Cascadia's. They are easy to work on, easy to diagnose and get parts since Daimler makes the whole truck (when equipped with Detroit powertrains). They are also fairly efficient, I generally see anywhere from 7-9 mpg for a day cab and 8-13 for a sleeper. Of course our trucks are fleet trucks so the drivers don't care about them. A driver with pride in his job will probably see good efficiency and longevity.

[@marcoslopez8890]

[@nashvilletennessee3194]

I've been in four cascadia's and now I just got into a Volvo vnl 760 which I have now driven for two weeks! As far as drivability on the highway the Volvo blows the cascadia away. I am willing to give up a few inches in sleeper cab room for the wonderful driveability. also the turn radius is way better on the Volvo so I can put it in docks much easier. the one thing I hate about the Cascadia's was that the front mirrors are too low and you cannot see them if you like to sit low in your seat. Don't have that problem with the Volvo. I feel that I have been upgraded to first class after getting in the new Volvo truck especially with its therapedic mattress. But most importantly I feel more in control of all of my loads. It just feels more stable and I love the jake brake response. I will say, however, that the climate control system in the Freightliner is better than Volvo and more responsive to temperature settings; and I miss my cabinet doors on the Freightliner! Things keep falling out of these cubbies on the Volvo!

[@404TRUCKERTV]

If you're buying it, i say freightliner, dd15s got a lot of support on the road, mechanics know the truck and parts are everywhere.

[@siachen6680]

If you go OTR, then Freightliner would be a better option because of their wider network of repair shops across the country.

[@shoncunningham4749]

Cascadia, if your an owner operator you also need to consider the purchase price and fuel mileage. If you don't dog it and do regular maintenance the Cascadia will be more profitable.

Had a 19 Volvo and it handled better than any other truck I've had, got a new 20 cascadia now and the interior is roomier cause there's no wrap around front cabinets , even though the freight has better automaton capabilities I wish I kept my VNL the steering and shifting are the best in the market

[@tuvshinkhantaishir3910]

I drove both of them too. Freightliner Cascadia Cascadia's sleeper better than Volvo. It has bigger bed and fridge. Cascadia seat is not comfortable. The biggest issue with Cascadia is the transmission. It doesnt shift well. You got to manually shift in the mountains. It doesnt know there is 3rd and 11th gear. It always jumps from 10 to 12. Also its way louder than Volvo. Especially when you use your engine break you will hear the engine. Mirror is smaller and smaller fuel tank. Volvo The seat is very comfortable. It has smaller sleeper but for single driver its okay. Driver view is much better than Cascadia. Wabesto has ticking noise which is so annoying. It has too many sensors so you will get engine light for nothing. Very good transmission and engine break. Its really smooth. It doesnt jump up and down like Cascadia. Computer knows what its doing. My conclusion Owner operator should get Cascadia because its cheaper and cheaper repair. It will break down more than Volvo but remember its cheaper. Company driver should get Volvo because you dont pay nothing for break down. Volvo is expensive just to diagnose.

[@Ricchmic]

So u firmly advice cascadia for a first time o/o

It most likely is the outlet NOx sensor. If you have a Freightliner like mine you will need OEM NOx sensors or you will be back in to get them replaced within three to six months. I don't know how the D13 or D16 engines handle aftermarket sensors, but Detroit engines must use the OEM.

The 2016 Cascadia I operated had close to 700000 km and the DT12 in that would kick out at 100kmh and I'd have to slow down til it kicked in in 5th. Very dangerous on congested highways or descending a steep grade. Freightliner couldn't find the problem. Haven't had lots of seat time with the Volvo I shift. Everyone seems to have great things to say about the I shift. Last Volvo I operated was a 2004 with a d12 and a 13 speed Eaton manual. Truck had 1.6 mill and the engine wasn't overhauled. Great truck. Not pretty or fuel efficient by today's standards but reliable.

[@JamesJohnson-ro2jq]

In my experience, I wanna focus on dependability. I have driven all makes of trucks and I find that any truck will last along time if treated like a tender object. I’ve met drivers who slammed and jammed the truck and before long they are setting on the side of the road broke down. I’ve driven trucks over a million miles and never had any major breakdowns, yes, the normal stuff due to bad fuel or very severe weather conditions. But never caused by driver abuse. I do wanna get home after all.

I agree James. Even Kenworth & Peterbilt trucks will be in the shop a lot if a truck driver operates them abusively.

I drove both for awhile. Your right, about both of them. If Volvo was bigger inside i would love to drive it over the Cascadia. I like comfort and performance.

[@davekimbler2308]

Your not going to like my opinion but here goes ! If I HAD to choose it would be the Freightshaker because of the motor , that Detroit will outlast that Volvo every time ! They regen less often and better on fuel economy ! Now what truck would I buy over ALL ? It would be the 359 or 379 or 389 hands down on newer rigs ! On older rigs it would be the Diamond Reo with the triple sleeper and the 275 inch wheel base w/ twin 8 inch stacks chrome kegs and 200 gal. Tanks 4x4 - 16 speed Spicer low pro air 5th heated west coast mirrors and lit up like a Christmas tree ! What did I drive for over 30 years was usually a FreightLiner air ride cabover w/ 70” bunk 200 inch wheel base and a 9513 RoadRanger 13 speed tranny .

The whole engine/transmission reliability issue on the Cascadia isn't nearly as bad if you spec it with a Cummins and an Eaton like I did. The buyout price is a little more expensive, but parts suppliers are way more likely to have them for the ISX/X15 and Eatons than DDs and Freightliner 12spds.

[@BigRigRich]

I’ve been selling trucks for over 30 years. The Volvo is a stought and safe truck for sure. The steel cab can be heavy though and decrease your payload capacity. Volvo does not have the dealer network that Freightleiner/ Western Star and Detroit does either. Volvo is also are limited to the 13 liter engine, which for some applications, like heavy haul, may not offer enough power compared to the Detroit DD15 or the 600 HP DD16. But like I said, Volvo makes a nice truck. Back in the 80’s and 90’s I ran 5 trucks and hands down the Freightliner with the 12.7 liter Series 60 Detroit made the most Money because if the great fuel economy and reliability. I had several Detroit engines get a million miles before going in to them. Of course all the drivers wanted to drive the Cat powered Pete’s I had, but at 4.5 to 5 miles per gallon, they looked good, but didn’t make the money the Detroit powered Freightliner’s did at the end of the year. Like you said, they are both good trucks and will do a great job. I was surprised about your comment in the DT12 automated transmission in the Freightliner, I’ve not had any complaints on shifting or performance. Now some drivers don’t care for the “ E-Coast”, but are amazed how well the engine brake works. It will hold you back coming off a long extreme mountain. Be safe out there and stay away from ole Rona Corona. If you get thru San Angelo, Texas sometime give me a shout and I’ll buy you a cup of coffee. I’ve been with the Freightliner/ Western Star dealer out here for over 20 years and seen a lot of changes in the truck industry over the decades.

[@TranslatedAssumption]

I was at Goodfellow AFB for a year back in 2002. The #1 complaint I've heard about Freightliner transmissions is that many companies spec their trucks to run in eco mode only which causes the transmissions behavior to be a bit frustrating at times and especially during certain situations when it needs to perform otherwise.

So basically Freightliner is for real men (+6' 300lbs) and Volvo is for feminine men (skinny boys). Gotcha! There's a reason Freightliner Cascadias are the dominant choice for fleet. They are the strongest 💪 out there that's relatively cheap to buy, maintain and earn the companies using them the most money. The instant you switch to any other truck, you already lost money...

[@fozziedabear4782]

Definitely like the video. Also you should have mentioned that Volvo computer software at the mechanic shops are more readily available then Freightliner. So it can be fixed faster and easier as opposed to Freightliner who don't release that expensive software unless the mechanic shop has purchased it.. Definitely go with the white color. Keeps you cooler during the day and color goes with everything. I'm about to purchase a truck but this video has been a game changer for me, I'm 90% for Volvo now. Thanks

I think shakeliner is better choice!! It’s cheaper to fix and it’s easy to find people to fix!

[@funonutube100]

These two trucks have about as much class and style as a loaf of white bread!!!!

[@angrysocialjusticewarrior]

You don't drive trucks for class and style. You drive trucks for money. So if a truck has to be clinical and soulless to be the best on the road, then so be it.

[@fozziedabear4782]

Go to an art gallery if you're looking for class and style 🤣🤣🤣

[@flysrangers9101]

Volvo.....100%.....no doubt.....

[@pit_stop77]

Interesting comparison when seen in compared to European trucks

[@professor_thunder]

A Volvo VT880 with a C18 would be perfection.

Rusty we missed u!!!!!!!

You deserve a like Watch you from Sudan

I still googoo eye the Volvo trucks every day on my way to work. I’m an RV Technician and get to drive the Big Class A Busses, but I’m not a truck driver. (YET) I drive over the 4th of July Pass every day 53 miles to my job and another 53 miles back home. I see hundreds of big rigs on the road everyday. My dream is to be a truck driver because I’m anti-social lol. I really like the Volvos, Peterbuilt 389 and 789’s and think the Mack truck Anthems look the coolest. However, my opinion is based off looks, not experience.

I had more issues with Volvos than Freightliner cascadias. Plus Freightliner parts are a lot cheaper.

[@kingcrusher5524]

Both very nice looking tractors. To me as you can see to your left I prefer the Cascadia. I really enjoy your video's sir, thank you, and keep up the good work.

[@TheRustyCracker]

Thanks 👍

[@mrfilmer9270]

Wait the one on the left.. ..is the Volvo

[@postobetao]

I hear that parts are cheaper and easier to find. Making Cascade more economical.

[@الأميرالفقير-د3ب]

Volvo number 1.

[@ecua-el_pinguo2164]

I drove a 2020 cascadia 80k miles with no problems transmission shifting a lot it’s a pain in the a** tho

[@dariushfilsoofi5256]

I love VOLVO, the king of the road

[@roncross3532]

Question for you have you had any issues with your Volvo, and how is the sleeper do you get great rest? I'm thinking about getting a VNL 860 just trying to get all the (pros & cons) before August

[@MichaelChason]

2020 Volvo. Been in the shop every 2 or 3 months, usually a sensor problem.

[@hennessyproductions6721]

I’d take the Volvo, May be a bit biased because I am a Volvo VNL guy.

[@stovebolt448]

Sorry Rusty I'm a Kenworth fan you drive a volvo or a shaker but you climb in and strap on a K.W...as long as your comfortable in a truck is all that matters🤗...drive safe......and happy trails.....God Bless!😊...….…..see ya

[@westerfreitas1224]

Awesome video ,but in you opinion which one is more economic?

[@theobservermelanin1746]

Honestly Volvo is the #1 Truck that I see on the side of the road with the Hood up and triangles behind it. No lie. Now as far as owning 1 The Parts, The resale value after 600,000 drops dramatically. Also The Volvo dealerships are far less to find out on the road and not everyone wants to fix on them. I just think the New Trucks are more Problematic and Less reliable. I'll stick with Freightliner because they have way more Dealerships.

[@markm0000]

Plain white is boring. You need to paint your Volvo pearl white like on Cadillac or diamond white on Mercedes. That really stands out from everyone else. Also paint all the black plastics. The Volvo grill will look nice all white/chrome.

[@mork3811]

Very deep approach for each truck.Thanks for the tape measure.freightliner 2020 has new updates for engine and transmission? Thanks again

[@dmars_e8762]

I wish that volvo came with the n14 red top

[@rommelvillanueva4230]

Wow that's awesome
