Older trucks with highest resale value.

If you found a beat to death A model, and someone gave it to you. You could put 30k into it and if you drove it to a truck show you would definitely get your 30k back.

 

I don't know about that. I chopped it down to a single axle daycab. Not much market for it now lol.

 

I just looked again 19 yr old Truck. same price it was 12 yrs ago . I even saw a 2000 Classic like mine in Truck Paper for $30 k SHOWMETHEMONEY!!!!

 

I’ve Owned 2 Freightliners 1 99 for 8 yrs, Had my first Wreck with it and did it real good.Now have had my 01 for almost 11 yrs. I like the Classic not looking for resale as I keep Trucks a long time.But if buying with resale in mind KW or Pete only way to go.Too many Shakers still around. Dime a dozen

 

There's some guy around here with a 2007 freighliner classic with c15 and an 18 speed, the crazy bugger thinks it's worth 50k.

 

I found some old ads First truck WS bought June 96 2nd Truck Classic Bought July 2000 I miss the Star Car

 

One more worth mentioning from July 2000 Truck Paper ad gets my vote as a money maker. The Truck I should have bought. Not bad for a 4 yr old Truck

 

My brother bought a nice A model back in the spring for $6,000. New brakes and tires is all he’s had to do. Down side is it has a 1693 Cat, not a bad engine but thirsty. He mostly just uses it to haul grain 3 months of the year.
