Where to buy good trucks from?

Nobody is managing those prices. Obviously there is no "sales team" there.

I called a small tanker fleet in Arizona selling used equipment because work was slow. Way more affordable than anything online.

 

Gucci25, check out this thread before you buy a truck, http://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/posts/5009554/

 

Whatever u do stay away from the jxe.pete dealerships.

 

The only place I'd buy a used truck today, is from the owner.( and plenty are throwing in the towel) They can usually tell you everything they've done to it. While I DID buy my '72 Pete in my ( fuzzy)Avatar pic from a dealer, ( never was fuzzy before the new format) they let me call the previous owner, so I could talk to them. That was 20 years ago, I doubt they'd do that today. Remember, people trade in worn out trucks at dealers to get new ones.

 

Why? Just curious.

 

Imo it doesn't matter if I'm talking to a dealer or the original owner about repairs and service work, If it's not on paper, it didn't happen. If it is on paper check serial numbers.
Not everyone selling used equipment is dishonest! but the one that is, is trying to sell you junk!

 

Not at ALL!

 

From one of the guys in your area that is retiring or retiring soon.
