    Does anyone know how to buy a used Peterbilt with bad Credit, I had a motorcycle accident last year and have medical bills. I have 10% down and have searched high and low for a company that will loan to me. Does anyone know of a place that will finance someone with bad credit or where to find people that will owner finance. I need the truck to haul cattle, so the income will be good, just need someone to be willing to finance me.

    Peterbilts are nice, no question, but can you justify an extra 10 grand just for a name? I'm not trying to start a riot or anything, but I'm assuming this would be your first truck? If so, would you not be better looking for something reasonably priced until you get up and running? Buy a cheap truck in cash, make it work for a while, and buy a newer truck later in cash. Just my opinion though

    How can you have 10 percent down if you don't know what the price would be?. 10% of 80000 10% of 40000 or 10% of nothing? Sorry but it does not sound like you are gonna get very far.

    Maybe try working for an owner operator that would sell you something after you drove for him a while or let him keep part of your pay towards the Peterbilt
