    I hate to say it but I don't know if $5000 will get much truck these days, I know its a Volvo and its a 95 but I figured what I was asking was very cheap. especially with a wet line and a good track record. Mercer was very strict on trucks being good looking and DOT shape at all times. I failed an annual one time for a missing clip on a air hose, and slightly more then a 1/16th of an inch play on my steering shaft u-joint

    i know thats what i told him, he just wants to put out as little money as he can up front and hope it last a year then upgrade to something better. He's already got work lined up for a truck...just needs a truck lol.

    Yeah I understand that, I started out thinking like that too and quickly realized this truck made me the most money, I also ran an 01 Freightliner classic with a 600 cummins and having a payment sucked when things broke and times were slow thats why I always held onto this truck I just sold the "SHAKER" and now this ones hopefully going too. Between CSA and DOT and rates and I wanted to be home more and reduce my stress. I put a guy in this truck and in 3 days he flipped the trailer on its side!!!! Then I found out progressive had canceled my policy without telling me, talk about stress

    I don't see how that truck wouldn't last a year. I had an old Winn-Dixie volvo and hauled sod out of south Florida for quite a few years, heavy loads and very unforgiving conditions and we never had the first issue with that truck. It was a workhorse and shocked the hell out of me how well it performed off road. AT, I bet your dad would see a return on his investment with that truck in no time.

    Sorry computer was acting up. I'm in Wellington Ohio. 44090 it has a 36" bunk. I have to say my freightliner had a 86" condo with all the options including wood floors, and I missed this little sleeper every night lol. I loved having everything near by and not all cluttered up like you can in a big sleeper

    Here is a picture of my other truck I just sold. Like I said I take good care of my trucks and worked very hard to get those 2 trucks. But after my Dad passed the business was never the same without him there to help me
