Mitsubishi Fuso...???
I found one locally for sale. They claim it has a bad turbo. They give no symptoms. I asked to come and look at it. Does anyone have any experience? It has 220,000+ miles.

They are nice trucks, there turn radius is very good, similar to the Isuzu trucks
and much better then any ford or GM truck. Decent power as well, 75/80mph with out problems.

I drove one once thinking of replacing my scout for snow pushing with it in my parking lot and such. It was too big for my application.
They look a lot smaller in a picture than they are. It seemed pretty high quality to me. Lots better than my scout! Tom W

I am wondering what they mean when they say the "turbo is not working". It may be a little big for my needs. '22 box!

I guess that could be the worst case scenario. I was just wondering if they had it looked at by a shop or maybe there was just a sudden loss of power and they assumed the turbo quit.
