Purchase advice needed ford LTL9000

True on the Aeomak.
Here in utah a lot of the sterling.R still on the Road even after the Union put Sterling out of business because of price dispute on what it cost them to build that truck. I was a service advisor for Sterling. Freightliner did buy the rights to the Sterling chassis so you could look at a Freightliner dump truck if you did like the Sterling

 

3500 for the pair. I can just imagine the condition they're in. That's pretty much scrap price right there.

 

Take them both. You aren't going to find many Fords around anymore, even if one is a parts truck, the drive trains are worth that. Nothing like having a spare "13" laying around,,

 

Dam they most be complete junk for the price of both. If you will be using just on the farm and not on the toad you will be ok. But if you plan on putting on the road, you will need to spend at least 20k on one to get it sound for the road or dot is gonna shut you down real quick with a laundry list of fines. I’ll bet all the lines need replaced. Bushings everywhere. Hell list could go for hours. Roadworthy 10 wheeler dump will cost 15 at least

 

Be careful you don't get somebody elses junk.. I've been down that road before..

 

How could a dump truck for 3500 bucks be junk lol

 

lol... well the seller has some faith in his equipment..

 

You need a complete and absolute check in a mechanics shop big enough to go over it really well.

Anytime a Semi or heavy vehicle (Any vehicle really) that sits a long time, you find that it hurts them to sit in so many ways they begin to rot.
