TMC trucks for sale

So I'm looking at used trucks recently and came across TMC's ad for their trucks. I look them up online and they have a lot of them. The 379 looks like it may be perfect as I would want something that I could haul gas with. Short wheel base, light, still able to handle OTR if need be.

My question is, as I have sent an email request but not received an answer yet, does anyone know about how much they are asking for these trucks? Most are 3-4 y/o, 400,000+ miles, but set up rather well. I really don't want to call them and get into some long discussion with a sales person. I'm not anywhere near ready to buy a truck. But I am coming into some money in the near future and if the price is right I would love to be O/O again.

 

OK I found a dealer that has obvious old 2006 TMC 379's for 43,900. The dealer is an independent from Springfield, Mo. So I am guessing getting them from TMC would be cheaper. Dealer states truck is stamped under 17,000 lbs!!

 

They are TMC trucks. Same specs, frame length, everything right down to the bug shield. TMC would definitely wheel and deal better than an independent dealer would. I have time though. Expecting a settlement from a car accident last year. That won't happen for a few months at least. I was just curious. I don't like being back OTR and not owning the truck. And I will never do a fleece/purchase deal.

 

Good luck to you too bigcountry. I been down this road twice, so nothing new to me. Circumstances in the early spring of 2007 led me to getting rid of my truck. The bank actually had a buyer for it and I made $3000 over pay off so I took it. Kinda regret it, but it was good I wasn't O/O when I had my accident. Now I have all sorts of leads on people to sign with. Go figure...

 

If I may offer my advice. Definitely save save save now! I would not buy another truck, especially a used one, unless I can put a big chunk of change down. On top of that, a minimum of $10,000 in the bank on the day you hit the road. It would make things so much easier than being behind to start. I personally like to have as much on my own as possible in the way of base plates, insurance, paying my 2290 myself, etc. The less I am attached to a company the better.
