Thanks for your help. I was thinking about keeping the mileage under 350000 for my search. Since we will be running team. You think I should aim lower. I'm going thru a bank for loan. I was thinking $90000 should be good

What do you want? Comfort? Efficiency? Power? Looks?
In any case you want to look for a truck that was well maintained.
A few general suggestions: sounds like you want a decently specd highway truck. Any of the aero options would work, Pete, KW, Volvo, even Freightliner. Medium horsepower, 450-550 horse. Probably want to stay this side of 2013, preferably post '15.Brown Bagz Thanks this. -
Well if you buy a truck with 350,000 run it hard as a team, you will be at 600,000 in a year, just something to think about.
Midwest Trucker and Brown Bagz Thank this. -

Personally I would stick with manuals, but from what I am hearing the autos are doing pretty good. If buying used I would stick to a manual though.
If I was going to buy new and do what you have planned, I might consider the auto, and swap before warranty runs out.Brown Bagz Thanks this. -
Maybe you should get a long nose Pete with a flat top coffin sleeper. -
Here’s one for ya.
