The visor came off the truck I wrecked. The new tires kinda came with the truck.

Rookie bars are off and for sale.

I thunk about takin that muffler off.

I know they are going to jack me on paying any thing thats left owing to me.

brick I don't think I ever pulled a truck from a company and ended up getting my money.

Ol Newton what's his nuts that owned Centry produce brokerage never paid us a full months pay on like 5 or 6 trucks when we pulled them off him.

I hate to poke at a possibly sore subject, but... the truck you are turning in, is it going to the repo man or is it a lease-gone-bad? I am in the market for a good truck but don't have a ton 'a cash. One of the reasons I'm onto this 05 W900 is the terms. I had 2 IRS liens on my credit report but got them settled, however they are still on my credit report for the next 60-90 days. I got qualified w/o wiping out my cash. I really want an APU and O/O specs. Most of the finance deals I qualified for are for Well Worn Frieght Trucks. Anyway, is it a deal someone could assume???

The loan is not in my name. The only saving grace in this deal.

I can get you their contact info if you want it, but personally now that I'm out of it and they are screwing me I would say leave that one alone.

One of the jake stages is bad and the only thing we've been able to find points to the ECM. The power divider seal leaks and I've never been completely sure of the truck's mechanical soundness. I've always been scared of it the whole time I was driving.

Go to LCAPP and browse their for sale section. There is a 01 T600 for sale there for $22,000.

I put on a pittsburg power muffler on my 98 kw 3406E moter and got almost.7 to 1.0 increase mpg. I also added 7" chimmenys and it has a very nice sound.
It was worth my money for the mpg and the sound is second to none.

another satisfied customer...Uhem...Umm I mean I'm glad their working out for you I hear they tested quite a few mufflers before deciding on that one. A little loud with the jake on though huh?

Extrude Hone has its headquarters in Irwin PA does the manifolds for all of the performance shops I know of. Helps a tiny bit if your truck is mostly stock. Helps allot more if you have already upgraded your turbo and other exhaust components first.
