Freightliner stepping away from cracked frame rail.

The smart move now is to run the truck and max out a maintenance schedule to get the rail replaced or take the money and trade the truck in along with a large down payment for a new truck.

Frame rails are the spine of the truck. Even iron gets old and tired. If you've ever twisted your ankle real bad then it healed up good as new, there are still those cold days where you feel it all over again. This repair is a bandaid, nothing else, eventually you will feel it all over again.
