Perfect Team/Couples truck or for the Lone Wolf Driver who likes to enjoy resets on the road! If you ever shopped for a truck like this, you’ll see why I bought it. Cleanest truck I found! I’m less OTR and more local now…more truck than I use! Don’t let the size scare you, I’ve had it 9 months, over 300 docks and only 5 that I wasn’t going to fit in! Average retail for this year/type truck is $70k and up and they aren’t this low mileage or well cared for! Old United moving truck, went from bedbug trailers to flatbeds, I’ve been running box vans and going back to flatbeds. I run every state except California and I’ve been in every major city except NYC and metro area. Wash DC, Baltimore, Dallas, Houston…mountain roads, nurseries, tree farms, DC’s…Caves…Springfield MO excellent…Kansas City caves, not big enough…jockey truck moves for me @ $25. Weight… it weighs 4K more than avg. With a 53’ 14k box van, I keep my loads under 40K. I get more than enough loads 25k and under. After 141 runs, I’ve had 4 that were close to max wt. I can’t cover all the systems this truck has… 2000 Kenworth T600

Trucks always need some TLC, this one was “retired” when I got it and within my 9 months of hard road time, I’ve done the following all at different times…:
New starter, truck alternator, genset alternator, belts, windshield, batteries (7), air dryer, ECM, clutch adj, reman front diff/splicer, upgraded front torsion bar/3 axle alignment, repl steer tires, front drive axle seals, repl speedo (used), one king pin (second in tool box), new fan clutch
Trucks always need some work too: A/C Compressor stopped last month, ($500)… Genset started knocking last week, (est $1000, won’t know till I get back to the shop)… outside air temp gauge hasn’t worked… Fridge needs a shot of Freon… and the little dash CAT computer works most of the time, don’t know much about it
My list? Complete wax job, upgrade the 9 interior fluorescent lights to LED, add a 2 burner elec stove top…change exterior lights to LED
