Well on this trip I stopped in Wytheville Va. to wait out a storm, lots of wind and rain.The Cascadia did a swell job to get me in here out of the weather. At 95,000 miles the CASCADIA is doing a great job,still looks like anew truck. My M.P.G. 6.9with the heavy loads I have been pulling this is great Till next time be safe
