    Default Bandit got a truck! (now w/pictures!)

    Thats right! My Dad came up with the bright idea to buy a new T600 and sell me the "old" '06 (recieved in '05) with extremeley high mileage (111,000 ). I'll get some pics up soon, but heres the specs-

    06 T600
    Studio Sleeper
    550 ISX, 13spd
    244" WB
    111,000 miles
    All white, no top fairing (flat top after the sleeper, no deflector to line up 13'6 w/ trailer)

    Even comes with full tanks! Can you say "in-house" financing? 8) I go to work in a week or so after I get my wisdom teeth pulled with a United agent.

    Hip-hip- hooray!

    The best part is, is that my dad has owned it from day #1, so its been taken care of very well. He also didn't want to se me buy a used truck and have a major breakdown.

    Like I said, E-Z financing

    Congratulations! Now that you'll be set financially, you might want to look at getting a better dental plan...preferably one that will send you to a dentist for that kind of work :shock:

    True that! This bill is coming straight out of pocket for the lovely sum of $1800 Insuance would have picked it up, with a 10% deductible. Since I'm broke from going back to school for another semester and ineligible for Mom's insurance (no longer a student) I pick up the tab. Dental insurance helps, but they don't like paying for work, from what I've seen.

    But, yes, I will purchase top notch dental from here on out! Medical, i'm covered luckily

    I typed that wrong totally!

    The Agent isn't pulling my teeth. I must have typed too fast, so let me edit:

    I'm going to work for a United VL agent after my wisodm teeth get pulled. United doesn't have a dental branch, or any other company for that matter lol

    LOL, I figured. I've got a T800 with very similar specs and the same year. I've been pretty happy with it thus far.

    The T600 gets pretty good mpg, as does the T800, another "bonus". The biggest bonus is its turning radius and whatnot, which is crucial in HHG

    B/C!!

    I'm happy for you, but as far as having a United Agent extract your wisdom teeth, you would be far better off having that done by an oral surgeon!!

    Yoopr-

    Mine has the sunroof and step-down sleeper and sun-roof you mentioned above. Also, it is an aerocab studio, so there is no hole to climb through 8)

    G-man- I should really rewrite my sentence to "I am going to work for a United agent AFTER my wisdom teeth come out on the 6th."

    It'd be cheaper to fly to Bangkok, Thailand and get it done there. Plus some ladies to help you heal afterwards. :wink:
