They are the way to go.
Go broke & Go crazy.
Actually Hino makes a decent product if you buy one appropriately spec’d for your application.
Where are you going to run ?
How many miles per year ?
What will your gross weight be ?

greasytshirt will probably give me a what for for doing this, but here goes....
Whenever somebody asks about a Hino, i refer them to this thread started by an old member of EO (I wonder what Dakota is doing nowadays)

150,000 miles per year, to me, is not medium duty useage.
I drove a lot of Hinos, on and off a semi trailer. Most probably had 7 miles on them.
They’ll be smarter people than me to tell you if they’re tolerable after 400,000 miles. Or even useable.

I'm not saying anything good or bad about a Hino..... just information.
Both greasytshirt and Hino123 are the experts. Either should chime in at anytime.
2009-2014 stay away from, they have bad burner set up. I have an 07’ pre emissions pushing 900K. With you doing 150K a year is a lot but the hardest thing about the Hino is finding people to work on them. Parts aren’t a problem, they come out of MS, but your average mechanic can’t work on these trucks. Most shops don’t have the software for these trucks.
In 2015 the dpf heating system got a LOT more reliable. The warranty claims quickly subsided.

Greasy or Hino123.
Any comments on the 150,000 miles per year ?
Do you see many high mileage units ?
Are they better or worse than the competition ?

He said 23,000 gross.
It’s an under CDL truck.
I would hope he knows the difference.,
Once running some FEMA a shipper was putting 18,000 pounds on under CDL reefers.
Until a non CDL driver flipped one.
They quickly transitioned over to DR units.
Which they then reduced the loads.

I am mostly working on 11-14 conventional trucks at the moment. 2015-up trucks are coming in mostly for PMs, few are having issues. I'll admit that I don't often notice mileage. I'll keep my eyes open and report back.
