    I found mine on Craigslist. The ad said 1999 KW, call for details. I called and it was a fully loaded W900L. I made him a low offer and he took it.

    You can also use Search Tempest to search all Craigslist listings in a specified mileage range. This saves a lot of time searching individual Craigslist cities.

    You can also probably buy one from all the folks on here with less then 1 year experience who bought one and tried to get into trucking.

    Hey SCHULTZ....... welcome home, buddy! Thanks for your service. I got my disability rating after playing around in SE Asia. On one level, I hate to say it, on another level I am glad to say it.... welcome to the fraternity!
