I have owned brand new. I now have a 1993 with a whole lot of money in it. You could say that I have been on both sides of the coin. I cringe when I see a shiny newer truck. That feeling passes quickly when it is possible to sit at home when I want to, or when work is slow, or to say no to cheap loads and sorry shippers. Give me the devil I know and I will go with him. Now you have .02 worth of advice from one more ?.

I spent all the money I had been saving for another truck to redo the motor in this on. I've gotta run it for at least 3 more years before I can even start looking at other trucks. Not unless I want a divorce from my real wife. LOLglitterglue Thanks this. -
Ugly yes.. would I rather have a KW or Pete.. hmm you need to ask? But Freightliner suspension is pretty simple and tough. Once you get on top of the little things and work out the rattles in the interior.. they are pretty reliable money makers.
HurstThe_Great_Corn and Grijon Thank this. -
