    Blaming Lone Mountain is the funny part of this. Sure it sucks for him, but any engine can go at any time...rebuild it and drive on.

    Yep. Boss just bought an old truck. Got 40k miles out of it and now it's getting rebuilt.

    Exactly.

    I have bought a lot of used trucks in the last 31 years, some were great, and some not. I bought a used T800 last year that grenaded a diff a month after I bought it. I didn't blame anyone, just had it towed into the shop. Anything that has tires or tracks under it is going to cause you some grief.

    Hello Guys,
    I don’t know where to ask, but saw this LoneMountain sign. Maybe I could get an advice here.
    I have truck from LoneMountain and need to sell it. How does the process go? Can I find someone who willing to buy it to LoneMountain office? Would that work?
