    Now that we are seeing freight starting to slow down, does that mean Truck prices will take a break too? 2017 400k mile Freightliners should not be 60-70k

    You waited too long to buy a truck. The market is back up again. Six months ago I bought a 2017 Cascadia with 345,000 for $51,500. Now at that same dealer trucks with more miles than that are selling a ways higher than mine cost.

    Bought a 2019 Cascadia DD15 DT12 automatic 200K miles for $86K 8 months ago. They're $110K now on the market if not more.

    Idk what your looking for but this is the one I bought for $51,500 from Springfield Mo Freightliner. They have more just like it a bit higher miles and a bit higher priced. So far I love mine. (Trailer is not included in price lol) 82446465-600C-4DC5-B02D-E777BEDB4CA2.jpeg

    Its gone down these past few weeks but truck prices havent. My question is, is it worth over paying the 10-15k?

    Depends if you need a truck or not. I wouldn’t say it’s overpaying to buy a truck now, just back to normal. Who knows it prices will go up or down from here.

    No issues with it other than a KNOX SENSOR that went bad. Freightliner replaced it for free under warranty. I'm happy with the purchase and already put on almost 100K miles on it.
