Out of curiosity, wouldyou guys buy an 07 hopper bottom IF it was in good shape, new tires/brakes. It’s what 15 years old, maybe 16 as trailers are often carry over on year...
I may go look at another one this coming week..Dale thompson, JoeyJunk, Oxbow and 4 others Thank this. -
If the reason is hanging up the keys or changing commodities it may be o.k., then the trailer may be in good shape, not abused, and properly maintained.
Main thing is give it a good inspection. Look at all the rivets and bolts. Cracks around them indicating fatigue in the metal. A whole bunch of new ones indicates something failed someplace, and you should move on so your pocket book doesn't fund the next failure. Implement ALL the regular Anti-shafting and defensive maneuvers.
Calendar age is not so much an issue other than seals, airlines, and tires. If you buy it, have a trusted wrench go over that stuff with the eye to pay him up front rather than you showing up later in a body cast with a bad attitude.
Trust your gut if it says no. There will always be another P.O.S. available in a month or 2 that doesn't set off your scam-dar.Dale thompson, Rideandrepair, austinmike and 6 others Thank this. -
