mercer transportation

Either another W9 or a Pete. I've seen prob a $5k-$10k drop in prices since I bought this one last year. I'm going used again. If I went new I'd want a 14 or better but I don't want huge payments as of yet

 

Good luck, hope it works out for you.

 

If you bought new, do you get a glider for 120k or new 150 ish?

 

Depends, but all things being equal, glider.

 

I think if I were to go new then I'd go ahead and get a Cali truck and roll the dice. But alot of guys on here already are happy with their new trucks so far.

 

So I was on a "Hurry up and get to the base ASAP" MIL load. So I do, computers are down when I get here and I can't get on base. They decide that I should come back tomorrow (great, good old 12 months waiting on Gov. Detention pay). Ugh. I am on another "Hurry up" load tomorrow. Then one last "not so Hurry Up" load over the weekend to the house. All this because the base I was suppose to deliver to on Monday was closed and I lost my original "hurry up and relax" load back to the house that I had lined up Tuesday. The good news is that I am banking about 3x as much as I planned on this week. The bad news is that I've worked about 2x more then I was planning this week. But if I keep getting these loads I might not sit at home long at all.

 

I think the new trucks are fine when they are new. I wonder at 550k miles, when they start to burn oil.

 

My last truck I only added about 3 gal of oil in 1.2 mil miles besides oil changes every 50k miles. All of it was added after 750k

 

@CJndaTruck what year was your last truck?
