That figures that they wouldn't issue a recall on it. I had some people tell me that I should have just got a used one somewhere but I see in the...
That's what I thought they meant at first, too. They confirmed with me that it wasn't that, it's an actual bypass valve that's built into the...
That's the kicker right there. Hopefully when I get the truck back today or tomorrow, it's got all of the break-down nonsense out of it's system...
I bought mine with the junk removed but had it still all been intact, I probably wouldn't have messed with it until there was a problem. Seems...
Those are all very good points! What's killer to me is not having a place that I can work on my own truck. I have tools and all of that... Hell,...
I've gone to a number of different shops in my area but this time I went to the Freightliner dealer because of several reasons. They're the only...
I'm not shocked or surprised that it's costing money to keep it going, I'm just asking when enough is enough. Undoubtedly, everyone will have...
I've certainly considered that, too. I'm still pretty new in the game in my local area but I'm at the point where my name is out there and I'm...
I don't think you're being a tool at all, you're right about the value of the truck. Years back I was trying to buy a business from a guy that...
Luckily for me, I was able to save up and buy my truck outright so no payments on that. I paid for half of my side dump and financed the other...
I've been able to afford the repair work without any credit so far. Seems like one step forward, one step back all the time but I know that...
2014 Cascadia daycab, DD13, 10speed, tag axle 525k miles...former fuel truck now pulling a side dump trailer. My truck is in the shop again but...
Always.
My favorite kind of kill is overkill, haha. I like to operate on the basis of "it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not...
Thanks for the insights, fellas! We went to check this thing out today and it's going to be a pass for me. A "little rust" to this guy was a...
Follow-up on this for those who may be going through something similar. Back in February, I was grossing around 95,000lbs for a job... about 3...
I'm looking at expanding my small one-truck operation and getting a lowboy RGN trailer. I found one on Facebook that I'm going to go look at in...
Right now all I have is a side dump trailer and planning on expanding from there. I've been hauling manure mostly but have been known to haul a...
My business model (which isn't new to anyone) has so far been being direct to the customer and, ideally, I'd like to stay that way for sure. You...
That's kind of my aim. Things got slow so trying to drum up some new work. Don't really intend to hang my hat on it because my ultimate business...
