    I'm just glad I called right after i delivered my old truck... I was 10 miles from the Wyoming border on US20 and it would have been a hell of a wild goose chase to Covington, TN.....

    Nope... I stopped into talk to a salesman I know at Peterbilt in Green Bay.

    It was mid-January... colder than a well diggers ###... I knew he was starving for sales... I bought my '95 for $10k off their asking price, wrote a personal check and drove it home that night.
     
    SHC Thanks this.

    Higher mileage maybe.... I guess we can disagree on what is high mileage. For me it's probably 2,000,000 but I have never bought a class 8 truck with less than 800K on the clock.

    But it's not like buying a car... if you buy one that can be repaired at a reasonable cost, and the owner can fix a lot of the small stuff, mileage is just a number.
     
    uptownkid and Eskimo6804 Thank this.

    MedicineMan, how's that truck you got from Lone Mountain Truck Leasing?? Is it holding up? I'm looking to get one from them, not too crazy on the inventory.

    Have to say one post saying someone lied to you without any details will not do much to tarnish someone's reputation. You at least need to explain the circumstances instead of simply they lied to me...
