    F4931F87-0E01-48FD-814F-8032CB6684D2.jpeg ....if you were looking at this parts quote?

    Truck is a 2008 T660 with a ISX. Quote is in Canadian dollars......US is about 70% of this price. Bi-Annual emissions testing is required to renew plates. Close to million miles. Has not had an in frame yet. Doesn’t burn oil. New ECM last month. Every body panel has some form of damage. Local dealer doesn’t want to take it on a trade. The driver says he’s a year away from retiring. He likes the truck and that’s the only reason it wasn’t gone long ago.

    Since the dealership won't take it I'd list it on truckpaper.com and try to get rid of it. It's not worth dumping that much cash into it. Especially since the driver is going to retire.

    make sure the insurance is paid up and burn it to the ground.

    or park it somewhere in Chicago, and wait for it to be stolen, collect the insurance.
