Truck Worth it?

That's what I was thinking a lot of Pto time

 

I was thinking it was used as a tanker or dry bulk. Either that or the guy idles every night. Even with a lot of PTO time I think there was more idling than anything else.

Nope. 2 injectors, 1 turbo, 2 intake actuators and the wiring harness in the head. Only the valve covers have been opened up.

 

55 000$ for a 9y old truck which is close to worn out.
Go for it.
I truly wish you good luck,you will need it.

 

Was the frame sand blasted before painting ,Or did they just paint over the rust?

 

Mine must be broken then it says 1334679 on the clock

 

I would look for a truck with a Cat certified platinum warranty. Even if a few bucks more, I know that truck looks cool. But ....

 

NXS C-15's are a gamble. You either get a piece of junk, or a great motor. The one I drive for my company has run 1.5 million km's almost problem free (2006), but another one (the one in the truck before this one, a 2007) blew itself up a couple years ago (cracked the block).

At 650,000 miles and 30,000 hours, it's at most 100,000 miles away from rebuild time (that's a lot of hours). And for a CAT, that's $30,000 right there. Can you afford that?

I'd say go for something older that's already been rebuilt, or go for something newer with less miles.
