    Welcome to the forum. I think one of those freightliners from the Schneider fleet woild be an excellent starter truck. They may not be pretty but Schneider kept meticulous maintenance records on those trucks so if you buy one from them directly you can get those records on the spot

    Really? I am just worried cause I see them auction off alot of them with bad leaks and stuff and I don't know if that's how bad those trucks are hurting or they used those other ones for parts ya know?? So thank you very much for the reply Its either go with one of those or actually they have pretty good deals on a few t6's I was thinking about but ugh.. No idea lol my credit sucks and not a whole lot to put down.. So that's my problem actually if anyone knows if anywhere that will help bad credit and no down money please let me know :) thank you for the welcome bud :)

    The Schneider Centurys were glider kits, new body older engine so by the time they were sold off they've got 750k to 800k miles on them, so some leaks are to be expected.

    Why do you want to be an O/O at Schneider?
