Nice catch!!!!
Thanks WildBob!!!
Actually have a E-bay search that also found it but I sure do appreciate the help!!! I have a car hauler friend who is leaving Fl. tomorrow and will see if he might check it out for me. Oh---- If anyone would like to compare the rust on a couple of 2001 Peterbilts from up here in the salty north to this Georgia truck, I can e-mail the "ugly pic's" to ya. Thanks again. Be good, Jim |
I don't know if the FL70 is designed to handle 42,000lbs or not would have to call Freightliner and see.
Now let me run some numbers. 42,000lbs gross - 19,000lbs truck weight = 23,000lbs/5 cars = 4,600lbs apiece so I guess you would be alright. |
Just talked to the guy....
Well, so far, the e-bay truck, sounds like a nice truck.
He has the re-man engine paperwork and a computer readout on the engine. Will pass DOT. Clean truck and no leaks on the eng., trans., or hyd cyls. I asked questions, got straight answers. I hate it when a seller dances around a question and this guy didn't do that. The only down side is a 6 sp. trans. 10 sp. would be nice. Still looking but this one might do the job. NascarFan, One nice thing about the 5 pack's, you almost can't overload them. Nice to be able to cary a full load and not be worried about your weight. I'd like to be able to pull a single car enclosed trailer behind it. Lot's of times there is a high paying, enclosed load to be found going in both directions. Be good, Jim |
Devil,
Check out Westcoastenterprises.com....they are in Fresno,CA and have lots of car haulers. The have a 1994 truck that looks like a 5pack. |
Devil A,
I see that the eBay truck sold. Did you buy it? |
I know for my business I am looking to get away from using Central as a primary source of business.
I am looking for other like boards and companies to mine for loads. |
Nope---not me....
WildBob,
Wasn't me who bought it. In hind sight, I proably should have. When I spoke to the owner, he said the reserve price was $20,000. If the truck was all he said it was, it would of been a money maker right from the git go. I am going to call him today and see if it's really sold. If anything falls through I want to know about it. Be good, Jim |
What's the latest with the 5 pack?
