I don’t know, I would think a fleet owner would be able to voice an opinion on this matter.
But even me being a one truck guy I would never go back to running older trucks. I am money ahead compared to where I was trying to run older stuff. The payment is a wash, as you keep trading up the amount financed becomes less and less for a one truck guy provided that you’re diligent with your savings. Insurance is negligible as you change your value every year, especially in my case being leased to a carrier and taking advantage of the discounts where I can.
I also enjoy my time away from the truck when I’m home and I don’t want to be tinkering with a bunch of little things on my days off. Been there and have no interest in going back.John Joel Glanton, larry2903, OldeSkool and 2 others Thank this. -
Idk, but I do know I have way more money in the bank than I ever did with an old truck. But, I don’t own a prevost bus from 1992 and I don’t have a set of designer jorts. But I have owned a truck or two over the years.
