    Yeah I'm hoping that 1.25-1.45 would be the norm.

    Yes

    I have one in the works. A 01 Freightliner Century with 752k miles. In frame on a N-14 Cummins select 435 hp just done 29.000 miles ago. I'm trying to get it for $17k. Another I'm looking at is a 04 Volvo, a bit more $ though. I'm trying to stay under 20k for both truck and trailer, without having to have a truck that has over a million miles.

    Didn't mean it towards you Bronc, just a goal of mine. Nothing wrong with a well maintained rig that has 1 mill plus. My car hauler I drove was way over a million. And it was in great shape. Big Sky Auto transport takes #### good care of the rigs. I almost bid on a truck today, but smacked myself and said a trailer is one thing, but a truck is another.
