Message:: [QUOTE="HopeOverMope, post: 8874600, member: 178259"]You seem to be an interesting & optimistic individual, I wish you some good luck. You seem to have the right ambition, humility and etc. just remember, it took you a while to make this money, so I wouldn’t be in a rush to spend it. You’ve earned yourself a position of early leverage by being able to buy cash, and not be cornered into a sale... because you still work and generate income. Be willing to sit 6 months, a year if need be. There’s not much reason to be buying without rebuild paperwork, maintenance records, knowing the pervious owner, his habits and etc. Craigslist can be your friend here, and/or truck paper. I haven’t seen the truck you mention, but if you were patient working your regional craigslist, I’m pretty positive you could get that same truck for $15k. Search in Craigslist the motor you want, like Detroit S60, n14, Isx, 6nz and etc. these searches tend to pull up a range of different setups with these motors. You get to know the owner, get the real reason for selling. And if they were profitable they’ll have years worth of maintenance records and can explain you that truck like the back of their hand. From a dealer?... they don’t care. They don’t know. Can you get a great truck/deal at a dealer, maybe so.[/QUOTE]
