Everyone at EO did a excellent job at this years event. Almost needs to be longer. We wish we had so much more time to visit everyone there. So many people so little time. As everyone knows by now, everyone laughed at "vendor meeting concept" Special thanks to Lawrence, Bill @ NATS and Klaus @...

Cargo vans are great to fishing in and Pickups trucks are great to carry bricks and plywood home from Lowes. NEITHER will make an intelligent way to make money in the freight business. All else is total B.S.!! Phil Moore Former Independant Owner-Operator and owner of Nationwide Delivery...

forgot to mention; make sure you clearly understand what kind of loan you are signing. You want one that each payment contains a portion of principal with your interest per payment. Some dealers will have loans that are all interest on the front end of your loan. The truck will be two years old...

Our sleeper is a 126" ICT Can't really think of anything I would change except maybe the corner caps on the exterior. Should have chrome or aluminum as the paint has had to have been touched up twice from rock shots. We may remove the micro and convert to a convection microwave. Just a...

Hey Glen, Any idea on the cost? The 10 speed would certainly give you better fuel economy. Can that be mated to any engine or just the larger 350hp plus motors. Davekc

the .15 percent you refer to is caculated after ALL your expenses are deducted. Not on the total of your 60% gross. Hope that helps Davekc

I have had good results dealing with Palmer trucks. We certainly have had good luck with our truck. Davekc

I think 2legman is uninformed. Yes, expediting is not a booming business... in Hawaii. Too bad. Everywhere else it is thriving. Apparently he did not attend the Expo. I think he would've come away with a very different opinion. Davekc Large sleeper is much cheaper than a divorce. Pennies on the...

18,000 just for the auto seems on the high side. Is it a 6 speed or something higher? Davekc

Hey vernon What size sleeper do you have on your c unit.

If that is part of their contract and you agree to it, then you are stuck. Good point if you are driving for a fleet owner? I don't see a problem with it if they are paying for it. Davekc

Kerry thinks he can lead the country because of 4 months in Nam. He has been in the senate for 18 years yet mentioned his senate experience in 15 seconds during the dem convention. My person thought if he only mentions in 15 seconds what he has done over the last 18 years, that should be about...

We like the KW. Pete and KW are clearly the most durable of the class 7's. You give a little in space but you can't beat KW service. When you look at the resale end, KW and Pete bring alot more than their competitors. The only other class 7 truck that uses some class 8 components is Sterling...

seen a guy the other day with a fedex truck and he had a window unit hanging out his drivers window. Had a small gas honda generator running it.

Maybe a stupid question but it sounds like a nice truck. Why are you selling it?

instant flatbed. Now all he needs are some straps and tarp

Not a bad idea. It would seem the hardest part would be comparing different years ect. In a up economy vans and straights probably do better, but when it turns south, TT will do better. Especially if fuel keeps climbing.

As with anything, if the down payment is lower, expect to pay higher interest. And as Lawrence mentioned, finding one with a low down payment are almost non existent. There are a few selling no or very low downpayment, but they are selling a 70,000 truck for 85,000. Really do your homework and...

I would call Palmer truck group. They have KW in Indy, Ft Wayne, and I think Dayton Ohio. Indy does alot of custom work with ICT, ARI, and Bentz Davekc

You would do much better selling it yourself if they only offer 25,000. Your truck will be resold for 40,000 to 50,000 depending on condition ect. As Glen mentioned, sleeper manufacturer, and several other items would determine what you could get out of it. Price of used trucks are climbing as...
