This truck until a week ago was owned by a large freight company, titled/tagged in Indiana but used right here in Mississippi, was used to transfer 28 foot freight dry van body trailers around a local route, maintained by the book on a fleet maintenance schedule. We purchased the truck directly from the freight company along with some other items, not from a dealer or broker, simply turning this one into cash. After purchasing we cranked it up, drove it about 110 miles to our location, checked all fluids, tire pressure, etc., washed it and photographed for eBay. The truck cranks right up on its own power, engine runs great, transmission and clutch shift out properly, running gear is great, brakes are good, runs and drives fine, air conditioning is cold, heat is hot - all functions of the truck work properly, all tires are in good condition and can clearly be seen in the photos. The truck has a few negative things to mention, one thing is that the freight company painted over the company name/decal with what looks to be a paint roller and white paint, the positive side of that is if you want to remove you can probably take some lacquer thinner, magic eraser, rubbing compound, razor blade and some time and get it all off, otherwise it can be used just like it is without spending the time removing, truck also has an automatic engine shut off that kills the engine if you leave idling for more than 5 minutes, this is something the freight company does to all trucks to keep drivers from leaving them running while sitting, this can be removed, nothing wrong with truck and does not change anything while driving it just while sitting still, the interior plastic is ruff/busted up and looks bad, other than that what you see is what you get, not a bad truck for its age and seems to have plenty of life left in it! We are selling the truck with a clean-clear title and bill of sale, it will crank right up and is 100% roadworthy, we can also supply a 7-day temporary plate for driving the truck when picked up.
The photos and video were taken a few days before the listing on December 27th and show the truck in its current condition! Please take the time to look at complete description, view all the photos and the videos of the truck so you will know what you are getting.
