    Okay so not exactly a bonanza...but I have a 1999 Freightliner FLD and 1994 53' Pines dry van that I am thinking about giving away.

    The catch: The truck has $12,000 of debt attached to it and the truck/trailer needs about 4 new tires. It needs an oil change soon and the A/C needs a $180 part to get working again.

    Nothing set in stone yet. Bank has to approve you. Truck is in Atlanta, GA. Post or PM me with any questions.

    Yes, your right. I feel like I'm giving it away because I don't want to part with it, but I have to.

    So I guess no one took you up on your offer to "rent" it for $700 a week, right?:biggrin_25510:

    They did but no one has any money.

    Anyway it wasn't just the truck. It was a complete O/O turnkey solution, truck, trailer, tags, insurance, authority. Was a #### good offer. I wish I could have run it.

    I got punk'd. Ashton Kutcher jump out of a bush and said "omg I can't believe you thought that guy from Ohio was ACTUALLY interested in OTR trucking! What are you and idiot!?!"

    I could have saved an un-losable $28/day in insurance had I called his bluff earlier on.
