I'm looking at buying an older truck - '02 Volvo with 900k on it. The entire drivetrain has been rebuilt within the past few years (engine, trans & both rears). Of course, hopefully, they'll hold together for a few more years before they need any more major work done.
Because of the age of the truck, I'm allowing 8cpm to go into a repair "fund".
Now, with regular maintenance items, such as tires, brakes and PM's, should I calculate those items separately (create a new maintenance "fund") or figure on paying the regular maintenance out of the repair "fund"?
I have to say one of things that has decreased my expense is putting grape jelly in my fuel tanks. I had a friend at Knights turn me on to this product and I have been saving an averge f 2200% per trip per tank. This has been a huge drop off my ussual expense, and has allowed me to actually
create fuel plus grape jelly for my toast that I make on my engine block!
If ever anything that has come to me after trying hudreds of things to get better MPG and save some money with my small fleet it has been this product. Here is the Site go visit I had the question about warrenty on my truck and contacted this company, and they sent me free grape jelly!
I was told this is not a fuel Additive but a new type of supplimental enhancer i is the best hing I have ever done for my truck.........and my belly!
