If you go with that truck make sure you get the maintenance records and check for electrical repairs behind the dash from water leaks from the marker lights and windshield. I had a lot of trouble with my 2015 Cascadia because of the water leaks. I took it to a body shop recently and I think they fixed it right, finally.
Considering Landstar as a next step

If you are buying and financing a used truck, I reccomend the following:
- Get a Rigdig report. Its carfax for trucks. Cost - $50
- Have a ASE mechanic go over the truck completely including a DOT inspection. Cost - $250.00
- Have dealership do a dyno on the truck . If they wont do it...walk away!
- See if dealership will put an extended warranty from the manufacturer on the truck. Cost of the warranty is
cheaper then what it costs to fix any component, Especially the after treatment parts.
rigdig.comTheFriscoKid, D.Tibbitt and dwells40 Thank this. -
The only down side to rigdig is if the company (us xpress. swift.. ect) does the body work IN HOUSE it won't show up...
A friend was driving a new Volvo for us xpress when it was hit by lighting. It cooked the wiring. They had it towed to a terminal and gutted a wrecked Volvo they had fir the wiring. They did all the work in house... that truck was never right again and rigdig didn't show anythingD.Tibbitt and QuietStorm Thank this. -
