I have an freightliner M2 with a 300hp Cat and 800 ftlb torque. We pull a DRV Fullhouse with heavy motorcycles in the garage. I wish i could say that i fear no hill but pulling this weight, the truck is labouring on the big ones. On the other hand, braking is not something i worry about. The truck has hydrolic disks and can stop the rig should the trailer brakes fail. It has rear airbag suspension and air-ride seats and a compressor run by the diesel motor.
We use it as a daily driver and it gets into most parking lots with a little planing. I have a deck with lots of storage. The cab is large enough to have a full size 12v plug-in
cooler between the seats for drinks and snacks when traveling.
If i had a wish list for this truck it would be more hp and more comfortable air seats. The seats can be replaced but motor not so much!
