Sounds like your other truck is still in great shape, why are you parting ways with it for somewhat of an unknown?

My other truck is in great shape, I’m selling it for a few reasons. The market is strong right now so I’m getting a nice sized cash out with the equity from it. My work has changed where I have to run faster than 57-58mph to keep a legal log book, so fuel economy is starting to suffer more with the 389, combined with running 50% more miles than before (625-665 per day vs 435 before), and having to maneuver into some very difficult spots on a regular basis now is proving near impossible some days with a 260wb 389.

I have coworkers running 2018+ Volvos with DD13/12spd AT getting over 20% better fuel economy than I am, and it’s not my driving habits. This would be 2500+ per month that I want to stop throwing out the window and hold onto. I’m hoping this LT will get me there.

So it’s a combination of wanting to increase my profit margins, lower my overhead and make my life easier. I’m still very profitable running my 389 but I can’t ignore how much extra it costs me to run a truck like this, and it’s time to put a stop to it.
