    You bought a truck that needed an additional $7K in repairs and parts and thought this was a good idea? I hope you got EVERYTHING in writing.

    These Guys started out about 15 yrs ago, buying cheap junk Trucks, selling them with in house financing at very high interest. They’re whole business plan focuses on keeping the payments rolling in, with an occasional cash only as is sale. Bunch of lying thieves. They’ve had a lot of Lawsuits. Lots of new Names, lately Northshore, Covington La. I don’t even think they have a single Truck in Covington or La. for that matter. Just operating in Louisiana to avoid more litigation in Ms.

    I too can share my experience. These are some crooks they can make a truck look pretty but you better have some money to back you up to fix the rigged up bs they put togather. They do not stand behind their word everything is a denial til you put facts in their face then they want to deny doing business with you. I bought a 98 pete there since the purchase back in February I have had to replace
    Inputshaft in the transmission
    Rear main seal
    Flywheel housing
    Countless wiring harness due to spliced wires
    Wheel seals(4×)
    Now the engine
    This place is less than a good place to buy a truck unless you plan to restore one
     
    Rideandrepair Thanks this.

    I actually know these people, and all their connections. This is the original owners of freedomway truck sales in Gulfport, they sold their part about 5 years ago. They have a partnership with rocking c trucking, also own 2 but here pay here car lots over in saucier and one in ocean springs, ms and another truck lot somewhere in the New Orleans area.
    They buy wrecked trucks and try to fix them up to sale. Their shop is off hwy 53 just outside of Gulfport. They are top notch crocks that cross every T and dot every I.

    I thought it was the same bunch. The only time I saw any good deals, were for as is cash only Trucks. Back in 08-09. They were buying up everything they could. They had some decent deals, ofcourse they needed God knows what.

    What I can't figure out is 95% of the issues listed on these trucks can easily be seen by someone with very little mechanical ability. If you're looking at a truck that's a worn out POS, why are you buying it? Trucks are a dime a dozen, go buy a different one.

    They also buy flooded hurricane damaged trucks from auctions in Tx. and try to hobble them together for resale as complete units. Illegal. When bought in Texas You can only salvage and sell the individual parts.

    We need to open a class action law suit on these crooks!!!!! I bought a truck from them in January and have hauled two loads with it bc it keeps breaking down. They have now blocked my phone number on all their phone lines and won’t do anything about my issues even though they said I have one year Warranty
