    Trade in Value

    I think that they will low ball everyone on trade-ins they seem to have a lot of used trucks on the lot. Look for a dealer that has your desired truck in stock with a low amount of used trucks this will bring up your trade value.

    Thank you Dave. If I am correct you use a T-300 with a real big sleeper. How do you like the truck, and who is your sleeper mfg and how do you like them. I have no plans on going with a large sleeper 84' or smaller. It would be cool to have a big sleeper but I have to be able to work towards...

    ALL-TYPES EXPEDITE

    Hey jizface I just wanted to know what makes it not so good. I had gotten the idea from them at the Expo that they just concentrate on the upper Mid-West. But I would like to hear more on your dealings with them so far. Are they just a cut-throat carrier. Best of luck and thanks in advance.
