2017 Freightliner Cascadia 113 Day Cab Tractor – DD13 / DT12 – Prior UPS / TForce Fleet
“Diamond in the Rough – Recent Runner with Known Driveline Issue”
This 2017 Freightliner Cascadia 113 day cab is a prior UPS fleet unit later operated by TForce Freight, now being sold as fleet surplus taken out of service due to company replacement policy—not catastrophic failure.
Per the location manager, this truck was recently running a daily ~200-mile route before being sidelined when the carrier bearing bolts on the driveshaft failed, allowing the shaft to drop. The driveshaft was subsequently disconnected from the rear differential and the unit was towed into the yard.
With what appears to be a straightforward driveline repair (carrier bearing + hardware), this unit presents a strong value-add opportunity for fleets, owner-operators, or resellers.
Units with known, isolated mechanical issues—especially fleet-maintained Cascadias—consistently generate strong bidding activity due to their repair-to-value upside.
