    Have you considered Leasing a brand new Truck instead of buying used? All said and done it may be your best bet and a lot less headache and risk. Otherwise I would definitely keep the two Companies separate as Trucking can be a costly expenditure with breakdowns on the road.Not to mention a disgruntled Driver. A lot of Turnover in the Industry.Leasing would at least give you an easy out if it doesn’t work well for you. Best of Luck. Buyer Beware!

    Not to mention worn automatic I shifts . I read somewhere they were around 20 grand for a remanufactured tranny.
