    Stay away from TruNorth. I bought 2 year warranty. Had two claims and both got denied. Both times their “expert team” puts a blame on a worn out part or they didn’t receive paperwork

    Stay away from ANY warranty company. Keep a reserve on the side and possibly open a line of credit or extreme emergencies.

    I bought the truck, everything looks good. Only thing that caught my attention is that i dont see how to drain my air tanks. They dont have that metal wire that is attached to them.

    awesome, it'd be great if you keep us update on your business progress as well as any issues you deal with the truck.

    Sure, no problem. If any of you guys need a truck loan I would recommend going to your local Credit Union. Banks gave me a loan with 13%APR , 10% down payment over 5years. Credit union gave me 6.95%APR, 20% down over 5 years. ( I offered 20% down to the bank and the APR went from 13 to 12.64% APR). Thats a big difference
