  Although new trucks generally cost less to operate and maintain, the initial purchase price, F.E.T., and higher insurance costs means higher initial investment and higher Cost Per Mile. When a used truck buyer considers all operating costs - like maintenance and fuel, taxes, insurance and depreciation - they can quickly see that their total "Cost of Ownership" can be reduced with the purchase of quality used semi truck.

Whether your truck breaks down on the side of the road or you simply need to tweak a few things on your rig, a basic toolkit can make all the difference in an emergency situation. Keep a hammer, various styles of screwdrivers (including a Phillips and flathead), wrenches, and pliers in your truck so you can do any necessary maintenance to get your vehicle to the nearest pit stop.If you routinely perform mechanical work on your truck, you could amp up your tool kit with with more specific repair tools. This equipment can allow you to work more intensely on your vehicle (if circumstances allow) so you aren’t without transportation for long.
ClothingThe clothing you keep in your emergency kit will depend entirely on the season and your routes. For example, if you travel during the winter season, stock your truck with a few pairs of wool socks, thick pants and shirts, warm hats, and gloves. But if your final destination is in a warmer climate, you should also include lighter clothing so you don’t overheat.
  An extra pair of shoes can prove useful as well. Boots, for example, can keep your feet dry and warm in a snowstorm. And an extra pair of sneakers or work boots can protect your feet should your current pair become unwearable.

 

Everything Is Road-Ready

You know all that greasing, oiling, filling, and checking you would have to do with a new truck? You do not have to do that with a used truck. During the truck's intake inspection, the used truck mechanic makes sure everything is oiled, flushed, filled, greased, inflated, and cleaned to make sure it passes inspection. As soon as you pay for it, you can drive it.

We have financing options available

If you cannot afford to buy the used truck outright, you can lease to buy. In fact, we will allow you to put money down as though you are going to buy the truck. Then you lease it, putting monthly payments toward the possibility of buying the truck.

Truck History That Helps You Determine Sources of Future Problems

Every used truck has a history. As long as the other drivers and owners of a truck have accurately reported accidents, it will be on a truck history form that the dealer can access and print off for you. Even though all used trucks MUST pass inspection, you cannot find tiny imperfections that were caused by an accident until they break or need repair.
