    what year did you get? 2018? I’ve been looking into saving up enough for a 389. I’d really like a 379 though. But it’s hard to find one with the engine and trans that I want in a flat top exhd that doesn’t have over 700k-800k

    I dont understand why drivers have such a low credit scores. I've never have attempted to be an O/O but if I had I would have started prepping way before purchasing. That means getting your credit score up. I drove as a company driver for 25 years. The last few making 6 figures with bennies. I retired about 18 months ago. I have a paid off home, paid off 2019 F150 4x4. I have an income stream to where I wont have to touch my 401k and ira until minimum required distributions kicks in. Checked my credit score, its 831.
    Live below your means and save and INVEST. We live in the USA, take advantage of the opportunities. And always pay yourself first.
    Good luck to all.
