Entertaining a L/P

in the Salt Lake market everyone want you to have a "2010 or newer truck" I wish the oil fields would open back up.I so miss the days of we dont care how old your truck is, just can it do the work you applied for!!!

 

Found this truck in Denver for $29,950, 2010 Peterbilt 387, with 609,000 miles on it,400HP ISX 15L,13 speed,3.55 rears,APU,Dbl Bunk( beat's the hell out of getting dressed in a flatop I'm 6'4") Extended warranties available

 

Agreed,just dont like having to tear apart or get rid of a perfect piece of machinary, that performs really well, and I'm not losing any money just letting it sit.and when the oilfields open back up, I'll be already to headback up there.that way I'll have a road truck and a mud truck!!!!

 

I dont mind making payments on a newer piece of equipment that I need,I'm not gonna put a truck OTR that get's 4mpg,

How do you think ya'll got the truck you have now, you had to make payments somewhere,unless your rich or won the lottery!!! you needed a truck so you made payments to the bank or a company or leasing company.

maybe your a company driver, maybe you like being a company driver,but I dont, whatever you do works for you, but wont work for me. you sound a little Jealous,Maybe you can't afford to buy a truck,mabe your credit isn't good

Beside's let say the patch opens back up well now i have the option of finding a driver and making more. My classic eared me(my Company T&K Transport est 04/12) $28,000 in a 2 week period

I'll take the Black pete for $1300. a MONTH. I bought piece of mind which made my payment go up.
My classic cost me 1700.00 month when the warranty ran out it was gone!! and I paid that off in 3 years instead of the 5. and I'll do that with this truck, Run my ### off make double payments. of course my situtation is different, house is paid off,we owe on (2) 2013 vehicles, and my 18 year old daughter's education. so I need some more right off's!!!

 

I'm buying the black pete,and I'm staying with my current company.gave me a 7500.00 sign on bonus, rates a pretty decent,pay loaded and mty,they pay all tolls and scales, no forced dispatch, and we have a dedicated accts!!!
