    I wouldn't bet my life on that. Especially not a glider. It's a tool use it and view it as such. If you want to buy something that holds value maybe physical gold or silver. But not a truck. Not any of them. I remember 4 years ago spending more on an inframe than my truck by itself was worth. I was investing in my ability to produce an income for a few more years. Not a piece of equipment that goes down in value every day from the day it leaves a dealer's lot.

    I took a picture of the motor plate and it says it'll go to 470 hp. I'm wondering for everyone who's driven one on the highway, what are the rpm's at 65 & 70 with the direct drive and 2.64 rears? I'm looking at one from the tanker fleet, there's only a couple available right now. (I know there's more in the fleet, but Schneider isn't selling them yet)
     
    NinjaWax Thanks this.

    No kidding. There's a guy selling here in Ontario that wants almost 60k. Wonder if anyone will ever give him that...
