    I'm looking to purchase a truck from someone who has retired out of the business, ill, or as a truck parked taking up space. I've found trucks from other sites but postings are old. Prefer a pete 379, freightliner classic 91-98 3406e engine, truck may need work ok no problem.

    Lol yeah that and the other couple I monitor tend not to be full of starter trucks at starter truck prices. Usually "step up" trucks at almost new prices

    All I can tell you is to keep checking craigslist, everyday. Even this site, that's how I got my truck, I paid a wopping 6k on a really well maintained truck from a retiring driver. (hes on this site) I'll keep my eye open for you
