I was looking at a 2015 t680 with 450k no idea on maintenance was 50k needed new steers and drives had a rear structure leak and emissions codes and the Apu had been removed. So at 35k for this one Im going to rebuild fuel pump and if it pops 30-35k if I overhaul I'm at 70k so still less than a new truck by over 50% if you spec the new truck the same plus my current ct, esa, and in-site work on the 2016. Plus for now I'm keeping the Lonestar just gonna plug in my Cabela's battery maintainer I have installed and start it up and run it every week to prevent lot rot.

Sounds like a plan

Yea Lonestar, that sounds like a pretty solid deal. Whats the reason for the purchase... you just looking to upgrade or try another type of truck? Be curious to know how it compares in comfort to your current one.

Lighter this lonestar is around 23,000 with full tanks, plus at wits end trying to get above 5mpg I can drive 55 or 65 and fuel consumption stays the same

So with the riots in the twin cities my freight dropped somewhat. Quite a few stores are closed that I haul to (Menards) and the others surrounding have backed of with the freight.

One thing after another...

Twin cities needs to lockback down I like being able to drive through doing 60-63 never touching my brakes at 5 p.m.

I'm on a millage contract.. Let me tell you this i pull food for a dedicated customer and freight has slowed down. I Went from over $6000 a week to barely enough to cover all my bills... Its Slow but seems to slowly be getting back to normal for me. Last week got a $4k paycheck this week prob about $4k...
