    Technical Spec's Challange

    This Freightliner look any good?

    This would be truly for local runs under 200 miles and would do maybe 1 run to texas a year. It would be a backup truck for when the sterlings are in for repair or when we have to much work for two trucks to handle. Btw this would be used as a semi truck, no plans to make it in to a expiditor...

    What does everyone think of this truck?

    We need a backup/extra truck for the busy season, it should be a lot cheaper to buy one compared to renting one. Plus we should always be able find extra loads to make some extra $$$. http://i4.ebayimg.com/01/i/01/35/fe/2c_3.JPG...
