Hello all - inheriting a truck - could use some tips

Everyone’s advice is spot on. The money from selling the Truck ASAP is a for sure bet. It’s depreciating every day, and deteriorating every day it’s not being used. Maybe ask whoever told you in the first place about this supposed great opportunity. It’s a fantasy. Doesn’t exist in the real world. If I’m wrong, please forward the info. I might be interested myself. Sounds great.

 

funny timing, I just had a conversation with a friend that retired last year and is thinking of getting back in.

My words to him-

I wouldn't do it right now if someone gave me the truck

 

What he should do is ask the people who are advising him to do this , how much they would like to pay to purchase his truck ,since it’s so easy to make money being an absentee owner of a truck .

which of course will be zero .

 

Selling that truck will make you more money than owning it right now. Without any knowledge of this game you'll get eaten alive, and putting a driver in it will break you financially, and mentally. All the good drivers have jobs already.

 

Honestly, sell the truck. I think I speak for all of us when I say a bunch of us would like a nice chunk of change rather than a money pit.

 

Is this

You are getting trolled. This has to be a joke

Well, lots of times people from the outside come here simply to get an answer to a question. Once they get their answer, they bail out.

Sell the truck. Whatever money you get, either save, invest it, or use it to pay off bills. Either way sell the truck, get rid of any problems or liabilities that could potentially come your way.

God bless you & your entire family!

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead.

Over the mountains, through the woods, into the valleys, coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - truck drivers can and do go anywhere and everywhere, every day, every night, all year round.
