    What is she worth?

    No matter what I say in an eBay ad, I can't express how good this machine is, despite the genuine disdain I have for Mercedes part prices and Mercedes/Freightliner dealers. A potential buyer had me take pictures of every seam and the bottoms of all the doors, looking for rust. Guess what? NOT...

    What is she worth?

    On the other hand, she's running so effortlessly over the Rocky's it make me think she'll run forever, so the reserve should be doubled! :D Come on! You know you want her!!!

    What is she worth?

    4 days and 16 hours left. The bid is up to $6,400 so far (the reserve not met yet). She's on her last big run for us... Michigan to San Diego & back! We'll miss the 22 mpg!

    What is she worth?

    I'd have to figure out how to get them both there but that's a great idea! Then again, John hasn't asked me to put the XLT10 in his booth yet... ;)

    What is she worth?

    At an average of 63 MPH loaded 1,000 lbs. or less we get an honest 22MPG average. With over 3,000 lbs. we get about 20... Thanks! :D

    What is she worth?

    Here are a few pics... The generator swings out of the way in 10 seconds, or you can hook it up to the truck and start it in 20 seconds! I think she still looks good! Second opinions on what I should sell her for???

    Westmicher's New XLT 10 Project Begins!

    We just took her out for a 400 mile trip this morning. Averaging 63 MPH with the air conditioning on, practicing good pedal management techniques, and following semis when practical, returned 16.6 MPG. I am very pleased and very interested what we get with a proper wind deflector installed. :)

    Westmicher's New XLT 10 Project Begins!

    I brought the bracing concerns to my welder and he said, "You have a rigid box that has far more structural integrity the ANY semi trailer, on a super strong aluminum box frame, all mounted on Ford's steel box frame, reinforced with even more steel cross members. If those joints fail, I'll buy...

    Westmicher's New XLT 10 Project Begins!

    I also was required by the Feds to place a center mount high stop light at the top of the door. I did that today. While I was there, I also added turn signals up there as well. You don't notice them until they light, because they are super-bright LED strips. If you like the tail lights, I...

    Westmicher's New XLT 10 Project Begins!

    The GVW is exactly 10,000 as rated by Ford, NOT my company XLT10, LLC. The empty weight full of 40 gallons of gas was 6,180, until I decided to protect the oak floor with 10 ga. steel cargo managers/slides. With those beefy mothas in, her empty weight ballooned to 6,420 lbs. I may or may not...

    Tires and Odometer Variance

    Actually, the main reason most odometers read less than actual is an unpublished rule issued by the IRS to automakers... so drivers who claim mileage are screwed out of 3-5% of their mileage deduction. The savings are going to pay for Obamacare!
