RE: Buying my First tractor, any advice is greatly appreciated!
Mmmm it's been my experience in trucking that people or companies will tell you one thing and do another. Don't bite off to much truck payment. Contracts are only as good as the companies words. Someone's always trying to bleed you to death in this industry so the sooner you own your equipment the better. Contracts are here today gone tomorrow.
Good luck.

Sounds like a win win to me. He's done most of the hard work already.
I think he said he's in OR. Truck is worth what he's asking plus all the extras, pending inspection.
If I was buying another truck now, that's what I'd be looking for. Fresh inframe, new clutch.
It needs new tires, about $3800.

You have some really good advice from the other guys.
Just don't get in too big a hurry, take your time and things will fall into place if it's meant to be.

My advice is to get the best truck you can start with and keep the payments and overhead as low as possible! The hardest part is getting to know the new truck and big repairs can hit you rapid fire, be ready for it.

Dang it!.....thats an awsome idea! I just sent him a PM. Hopefully he will seriously look at it.....I know I would.
