    Yeah.... He's done pretty well... On his Facebook page those pictures he has on there are pretty nice... I'm looking at a Pete 377 old farm truck has 485k on it 1 owner or a T800 same guy owns them... The Kenworth has a little over 800k and comes with a inframe kit and a few other parts he purchased from a dealer that was going into retirement... I'm just waiting on an oil analysis before pulling the trigger.... But PACMANTRAP is definitely an inspiration with his success story...

    Great to hear he is doing well. I’d love to pick his brain as I am going to venture down the same path very soon. My circumstances are almost identical as when he started out. I just want to structure everything right before getting started.
