    You think it is worth that much? Not a jab at you.

    Have you looked at Truckpaper recently? Pre Elog emmissions nonsense trucks are still stupid high.

    No I don't look at that. Is that truck that he is looking at worth it. I already know the answer. But is it?

    honestly, I wouldn’t sell my 97 for 80k, and that just turned 2.3, course I’ve got a redhead in mine not a boat anchor detroit, and I paid 15k for it to start with…

    Sounds like a great plan to me! My only advice would be to find a bank with a loading dock where you can show off those backing skills while delivering trailer loads of cash into your account after each round trip. I wouldn’t listen to the people trying to rain on your parade from this site. They are probably just jealous knowing they'll never be handed the opportunity you have. Go for it!

    The 1.4 million miles would scare me…….

    And yes pre 2008 trucks are priced for the mentally challenged…….

    Don't listen to these guys. You obviously have researched this, found the truck you want, and will use your business acumen to turn a profit. Honestly I like your chances.
     
    JoeyJunk, Soltaker and Albertaflatbed Thank this.

    Depends on what shape it's in. If the corrosion around the rivets is non existent or nearly and the frame isn't rusted to hell and back yes. They dont even say what the total miles actually are on this one. The old hood trucks are stupid priced, but new ones are too. Screenshot_20230820-145406_Chrome.jpg
