Ive owned a few gas cube vans as a contractor for decades and want to get back into it. Bought a 2012 Hino 195 last week with 300 k kms on it. It'll be in an independent diesel shop for a few weeks having work done from springs to def to get it saftied.
Im not particularly mechanical and this is my first diesel. To be honest, after spending alot of time reading this much appreciated forum and all the diesel issues people deal with... I wonder if I made a good choice. But I want a highway/foodservice run and the truck is bought.
Time to suckitup and move forward.
I plan to have the shop owner walk me around the truck for a basic education session. If I would know a half dozen things to focus on learning about.... What would others suggestions be ?
