Along these lines I was looking at a 379 someone was offering pre elog for my cousin. "Excellent condition."
Excellent condition equated to not even running and need some drive axle work.
Trade in program for old rig?

1. 1986 model year 359EXHD flat top, 3406B, 15 speed OD, 3.90 gets 6.2 USmpg on summer fuel at 60-62 mph . Weights are 30,000 to 85,000. Paid $25,000 USD for the truck in 2014. Truck is worth probably $50,000 today
2. 1998 model year T800 tall bunk but without the roof fairing, M11, 13 speed, 4.33 gets 7.0 USmpg on summer fuel at 60-62 mph weights are 30,000 to 85,000. Paid $12,000 USD for the truck in 2007. 250k on the inframe done here in our shop.....$3000 for the Cummins rebuild kit not including the cylinder head that was replaced earlier, $2,000 labor. Truck is worth probably $30,000 today
3. 2008 model year T660, ISX, 13 speed, 3.70 gets 5.5 USmpg on summer fuel at 70+ mph weights are 30,000- 85,000. Paid $80,000 USD for the truck in 2007. Worth probably $10,000 today you almost can't give a DPF truck away.
Even without mentioning the emission related expenses of the 2008 that exceed $50,000, I'll leave it to the loan officers and aerodynamics experts to calculate which has been the better deal.Last edited: Feb 11, 2020

About 6 months ago a farmer out here bought a used 2015 Pete 389 trade in from Rush. ISX with 18 speed with maybe 350,000 on it. Really excellent shape for $20,000 cash. Was around $150,000 new down to $20,000 in 4-1/2 years.

$43,750 out the door.
$0 down and 8.75% interest.
So I only need to work it for 16 years to catch up with the mileage of the mighty CAT trucks.
I actually bought it in October, hasn't turned a mile yet, except to go to my drop yard, and yesterday for Landstar Inspection.Rideandrepair, feldsforever and rank Thank this. -
