That's laughable honestly. That's full retail for a known good M818 that has been gone through. Appraisals carry more credibility if they're accompanied by an offer to buy. I'm frequently asked for values on items. I give it as a range - I tell them what I'd be willing to pay, and what I'd be...

I got that information from someone who waned to take their California cdl test in an m925a1 and was told they couldn't, that it didn't have the required equipment for the pre-trip checks test out. fortunately I have no first hand experience with California's CDL. Artisan does, ask him...

939series trucks do not state "off road only". I'm not sure where you got that info - hopefully the seller is more knowledgeable than that. Titles are taking 90+ days from GP. Cali won't let you take the cdl test in an mv. May as well rent a truck and take your cdl test and be all ready to...

I drove that truck from Tucson to St Louis and back, with cargo cover in place. MPG was unaffected, as compared to previous trips to Ft Bliss and Nellis AFB without the cover. If the cover is nice and tight and not flapping, increased wear should be trivial. Although if it's flapping it'll...

I've driven all kinds of these things all over the place. I can tell you from experience you shouldn't have any problems in KS, OK, NV, TX, or UT. I'm not telling you what the law states, I'm just telling you my experiences interacting with LEO. California is a different world. I won't drive...

Bluntly put, you're not using the same set of priorities in your assessment that upper management uses. If your only priority is sales volume, then there is absolutely no reason to pause. Look at GP's business model: They have no competition, so there's no worry about driving customers to...

Jwade, if your wait time is suddenly improved and another explanation isn't staring you in the face, the reason may well be that a sizeable percentage of the calls aren't being actually serviced, just deliberately dropped as they come up. You're looking at "time in queue" and seeing 5 minutes...

A couple of words on call center management. A few of the performance parameters measured are "average call handling time", "call abandonment", and "time in queue". By deliberately dropping calls you introduce some really low duration calls into your average, you give less opportunity for...

I call. I wait through the count down until I'm number one. The line goes live, I hear voices in the background. My call is disconnected. This happened twice on Wednesday and 6 times today. 90+ days waiting for a title. I've got another guy waiting for the title from me. I told him when I...

Having driven a bunch of these things in all configurations, I can't really say there's a noticeable difference between an empty cargo truck and a bobtailed truck tractor. It's just the nature of the beast....

M925A2, in excellent shape with all the bells and whistles should be somewhere between $9k and $16k. The winch adds quite a bit of value to it. If it had actually had a new motor, $15k is about right. That's what I'm expecting to see on my truck with the 2007 motor. The $7900 you're quoting, is...

These are 600,000mile engines. If it runs good, that's what matters. Unlikely you'll wear it out. Hour meters and odometers mean very little on these trucks. They get changed out often enough that all of them show low miles. A seller who emphasizes the mileage shown is a red flag for me. Or...

Sometimes they did replace the engines. If so, it'll be readily evident. A lot of the replacement engines were "dresser remanufactured" crate motors. Some were new cummins motors. I've seen 8.3 liter engines with manufacture dates as late as 2011. I have a truck with an NH250 with a...

The engine has a manufacture date on it, tag front left.... Where was the rebuild done?

Um... and they look suspiciously like the wheel stud holes in a 5ton wheel. :) Jbayer, pm sent. Thanks

I make 2 kinds of pallet disassembly tools. I make one with a fixed handle that I sell locally and I make one with a stub of a handle that I ship. Today I'm putting a batch of them together...

For ease if emptying I left the bottom open. Intended use is on sand...

Instead of cutting scorpions, I spent today making another grill. This one is a bit less complex, and a bit more portable - at least it has handles.

mk48...

nice truck!
