    A guy close to me has one for sale I was going to look at. I thought you had one. Any problems other than normal wear and tear? Would you buy again?

    Yes Sir I’d buy another one in a heartbeat. Mine is a 2008 model, and strong as 3 rows of green onions. Still has a decent positive arch in it, and handles a load well in the curves.

    Other than electrical issues I’ve had no major problems.

    I like that the braces from the main frame up to the crossmembers are welded in place, those that are bolted to the frame tend to push out from rust getting between the frame and the brace…..

    It can't be that bad. Follow your dreams!
    [Edit] unless it's "I'm looking at getting this here white Volvo and a stepdeck with ramps and getting into heavy haul"

    No, NO, Nop, Nope, Nah. I'm practicing for the next time I'm not busy but need to pretend to be.
