    And remember you do not have to settle on the trucks they push on you. When I went over there they tried pushing their prostars because they had tons of them. They also have several other yards that you can go to all over the country to get a truck. I wanted to get one of their old Melton t660s but they were already spoken for when I was there

    Doubtful, those are old Melton trucks, been well taken care of, but those warranties are long gone

    Melton did do a good job taking care of their equipment.
    Doesn't mean there's never a bad apple in the bunch though.

    Side note: quality seems really awful. Making it a rat race to pick a truck, not how I'd ever want to decide on the piece of equipment that could make or break my livelihood.

    Pretty much, but if you find anything wrong with them you can have them fix it before you sign the paperwork, however the drawback to that is if it's a busy location, you'll be sitting awhile. I also believe they showed you 30 days to get things fixed in their dime

    Can you bring your own truck to celadon or are you forced to lease on?

    Lord please have mercy on us simple
    Minded truckers.

    300,000 thousand for a used truck.
    And he's happy about it.
    Somebody should be going to jail for this.

    You should probably go read the entire paragraph again.

    Simple minded people tend to blurt out things when they have no idea what they're talking about

    I clearly said I Have no plans on paying this truck off; it's a rental.
