    It's safe to say 500,000 miles. A well taken care of ISB can reach 1,000,000.

    Which engine does it exactly have? They make like 3 different ones for them trucks. Then you have to consider the axle weight to see how hard the truck might have worked. If you are serious on one have a mechanic check it out and run an engine oil analysis if it hasn't been recently changed. Most engine repairs start about 250,000 so you have to consider that. One with 300,000 might be someone else's problem or it might have new parts.

    It was bought by the company I work for new. This one is plated for 50,000 axle was 9500 and 17,000. The loads it run advarage around 40 gross. I was thinking of buying a used one with around 100,000 on it. Reason I was asking is b/c I dont know much at all about these smaller trucks. It has the cummins in it, Im pretty sure it was ISX
