    Yep..they do all needed pm and maintenance, then do an inspection of the truck inside and out and give your maintenance account a good rodgering for damages and all other work needed. I got hit for about 2 grand because of hood damage from a hit and run, cabinet that had a broken latch and the little fairings between the fuel tanks.

    What about the money the driver invested in the starter truck? Say 13 weeks at $120 a week = $1560 plus 30,000 miles times $0.20 = $6000 + $1560= $7560 bucks invested into the truck payoff.f they could roll that over to the new truck I might be tempted but if not I can't see pissing away $7500 like that.

    You're underwater. But you dont owe the balance of the loan when you upgrade, unlike a used car loan. So if you look at it that way you made over 100k on the deal lol.

    I dont think you actually have equity in the truck that you could roll until year threeish. Until then its interest chipping like a home loan.

    Also what happens to any money left over after they beat up your maintenance account? Do they cut a check for that amount or let you roll it into the maintenance account for the new truck?

    That's good lol. I've always wondered because tires will put a big dent in there that's for sure. And well money in my pockets always burns holes lol.

    Any body damage will be considered "accident" and should go toward your performance escrow, not your maintenance escrow.
