Nice truck -- looking forward to following your adventure!
You might give Con-Way Truckload a call or three to see if you can get a copy of their maintenance records. They might be useful when diagnosing future issues & it might help come resale time too. And if they sold it in 2013, I find the 1 older driver story plausible -- otherwise it should have been sold off sooner (they're much more likely to trade out a truck if it becomes unassigned). And younger guys probably would have done more than 80,000 miles/year.
Have you pulled flatbed before?
The journey begins - purchased a truck.

Congratulations Blair !
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
Sounds like a solid drive train but probably be looking at an inframe soon. Be nice to it and you might get a couple years yet. But at that price you'll still be in good shape and have a good solid pre emissions truck. One thing I didn't see mentioned was the suspension. Any idea what kind of shape that's in?
73% is kinda steep for your own trailer imo. 65% to pull theirs is even worse tho.Road Killer and blairandgretchen Thank this. -
