Ah I will try to snap a pic of one next to a 777D or a 930E vs 777D as there's a contractors 100 toner in the yard.

I was mistaken. It's only around $35 - $40K CAN to service one.

That's a major service / PM. Not sure exactly was it entails as I don't do PM's but I imagine its every filter & Fluid on the thing. The Truck has 8 Brake cooling pumps including a Hydraulic driven one in tank plus all the other crap CAT throw on them.
