Buying first truck

8.9% really isn't bad at all for a first time truck buyer. You'll be hard pressed to beat that rate. Good luck to you though and hopefully you can.

 

If they actually stand behind that warranty and give it to you hassle free when something goes wrong I agree that is hard to beat. 200K!!! Nice so what you can have that truck under warranty for about 16 months or so.

 

before you run out and buy a truck,,,,go see a therapist and determine if you have not lost your mind. through a series of breakdowns and bad timing of expenses, I've lost 2 trucks in 7 months,,remember that in order to make a small pile of money in trucking,you must first start out with a big pile of money

 

No doubt having some money behind you will help for the rainy days. Buy the newest truck you can with the best warranty. Crossing your fingers that the truck will not fail is never going to work. They all breakdown, its what you have planned to fix it that will keep you rolling.

 

All the best to you, If you succeed then a lot of truckers will say you were just lucky. I think the saying goes that being lucky is directly related to planning and hard work.

 

if its an inframe then yes I dont see why it wouldnt. But with that many miles on them you have to think about the whole drive line. Trans, clutch, rear ends and everything on the motor. They may of replaced the bearings inside the motor and rebuilt the head and put new jakes in but what about the injectors, turbo, waterpump, air compressor, injector pump and all the other accesories. Just keep in mind if you blow your turbo on say a 3406 I want to say it is a S400 B/W brand turbo. That will cost you in the range of 1500+ for a new one. An injector pump if the truck has one not a HEUI system like new Cats do that will cost you between 5 and 10Gs. Gotta know what all has been replaced along with the engine being overhauled and if it was an inframe.
