    I worked at Quality for a few years and my 2004 Dodge 3500 had a little over 300k on it when I sold it. The guy that got me into it with Quality left there the beginning of this year and went to Bennett. He loves them because they do a lot more backhauls. His 2004 Dodge 3500 just went over a million miles about 2 months ago. His truck is green and he had it stretched and had a sleeper put on it.

    You will lose more money with the class 8 truck. Brand new they are $140,000 and with 200,000 miles on it the dealer will give you $50,000 for it. Trust me, I've been buying and trading rigs for a while now. And if u are buying a new rig every 2 years then you won't be making any money. Also, a class 8 truck costs you double on the maintance ($250 oil change compared to $55) and parts are usually much much more than a 1 ton pickup.

    I might be wrong, but are you all and the o.p. talking about different companies?
    I think o.p. was talking about moving class 8 tractors, and towing the jeep,.and others are talking about hauling rv trailers.
