That's my thoughts as well. I'd love to drive one a long ways, IF someone else were to be responsible financially for the problems and/or tow. Lol.I am waiting for an APRIL FOOLS! Haha, I can't imagine driving a 5-ton across the country. I'd be all for it if someone else was footing the bill, but I don't think I could bring myself to try it.
Hope all is going well for you so far.
You do know that after 8 days you start enduring a $25 a day fee right?We could have made the trip together if other plans didn't interfere. When you get home, send me a PM and I will give you my number and if you don't mind, call and tell me about the trip. I plan to pick mine up at Fort Bragg the last week of April and drive it to Seattle also.
I spoke to Felix and he said can probably find a corner to put it in till I get there without a fee, but if not Bikeman will get it off base for me.You do know that after 8 days you start enduring a $25 a day fee right?
Makes sense why you went with this truck and not a A2. I also look at cost to operate. Bought a BMY with no year listed. With my research of the truck and Maryland's 25 year Historic plates somehow the research showed how it became a 1990 vintage.WA has restrictions on titling 'collectors vehicles'. Gotta be at least 30 yo....
Otherwise I'm stuck with 200 a yr reg plus $100/month+ commercial insurance for a rig that's not gonna be driven that much...
So... $100 one time and about 200 a yr for insurance vs 200 every year and 1200+ a yr insurance.
There are pluses and minuses with the cat/cummins.. and saw most of the A2s hit 6 and 7k......
lower initial cost means more money free to fix if need be, and more toys..
I so want a roof hatch..heh

Yup. I had a long conversation with iron planet.Makes sense why you went with this truck and not a A2. I also look at cost to operate. Bought a BMY with no year listed. With my research of the truck and Maryland's 25 year Historic plates somehow the research showed how it became a 1990 vintage.
And what year did it turn out to be ?Yup. I had a long conversation with iron planet.
Apparently. If a year is listed it goes by that year. If no year is listed, they let me do the research and let me tell them what it is. L o l
Mine was listed and titled as an '84, there was no confusion on the one I bought. I did look at ones that had no year listed, which is why I called for clarification....And what year did it turn out to be ?
