This will be my last one, then. Again, if it's an honest listing . . it's almost too good to be true . . '07 Columbia, 63k miles with a $55k price tag? That is by far the lowest miles I've seen in that price range. Zero down (not likely) and with decent credit it would be $1350+/- month (10% x 4 yrs).

Happy Motoring!

 

I'd go with a 359 flat top Pete with a 36" sleeper.
Be sure to get a hopper bottom. :thumbsup:

 

if it were me looking to buy a truck, i would look at things like motor, aerodynamics, fuel mileage, mileage on the truck, maintenance records...things of that nature. if one is buying a truck and the first question is about storage space then i would advise him/her that maybe they are not ready to buy a truck and go it alone. all the storage space in the world is not gonna matter in a truck that will bankrupt one in fuel and maintenance costs. just my opinion!!

 

agree!!!!!

well ENGINE (a motor is an electrical power unit), aerodynamics, HP, etc. is a given. However, you could have a truck that CAN get 8 mpg...but if you got someone behind the wheel who dont know when to shift and/or use the most out of the transmission, the fuel mileage will go out the window. I know i can drive both a Volvo and T2000 and get low to mid 7s without even thinking about it.

 

would you like to buy a slightly damaged Kenworth?

 

How slightly is "slightly"? Probably show me a picture of a truck that rear-ended a school bus going 60mph.

Okay...since i mainly run midwest/mid-ohio and sometimes down into KY/TN...what should i look for in a truck? i'm guessin' around 500hp, hear ALOT about CAT engines, but what about torque/gears etc.? I would think i dont need ALOT of torque. i'd want a sliding 5th wheel for sure....

Plenty of storage? Check.

CAT motor? Check.

Sliding 5th wheel? Check.
