I'm sure that's legit. If they bought it in Dec 2010, it's 13k/mo, which is about 650 miles a day, 5 days a week. Not unreasonable at all for a hauler. I'm surprised all the buttons, seats, etc look so good. I'd bet that driver's seat has been replaced. Be interesting to know how many sets of...
Wondering about opinions on tires for my JCB. See this thread for info: http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/threads/jcb-skid-steers.45832/
It will be primarily used inside chicken barns and on concrete, not in mud and dirt, so I'm wondering about a "mixed use" tire, like this:
As opposed to the...
The truck GVWR is 11,500, trailer should be 14,000? It has 2 7k axles. I can pull a gooseneck rated for more, I just can't have my load at more than 26k. Also, it's for farm use, so I get some gray area there too...
I subscribe to the Motor Trend on Demand and binged the whole series lol. It's good stuff. I also really like Roadkill and all the stupid shit they do, lol.
It's funny, the dealer sells something like that. Because we are a business customer, I got $1k in "free" accessories, and I thought I was supposed to get the under seat storage, but apparently I didn't. The DuHa looks pretty nice. All our half tons got the GM under-seat storage. Might be...
I actually paid less for this truck than a similarly equipped one with 15k on it that had just come in on trade. We got really good deals with the "bonus tags" and business pricing. It's not worth trying to scrounge around and find "lightly used" trucks, because everyone has paid interest on...
Crazy. My average MPH is 50, so not having enough time for regen isn't a problem. Hell, even our Delivery truck can do regens, and that doesn't do super long trips....
Made a run to Tractor Supply Co looking for tool boxes and ended up scoring a decent deal, $202 for a matte black PC lo-pro...
Yeah, I can only imagine, that would suck.
Not sure why all the decals are flaking off, I'd guess it was parked outside previously? The decals on the door are kinda goofy too.
Well, update. I bought a 2013 260 ECO (~2600 lb lift, ~85 HP JCB diesel) with 335 hrs on it a few weeks ago, and I'm in love with it. I had to do a bunch of work with the "mods", basically the cages they're transported in (See pic). They were shipped in containers from Europe on end, so they had...
Hahaha. Well, I was in charge of purchasing the trucks, and the boss (Dad) OK'd the price, so I got what I wanted lol.
Already putting it to work:
Bought a JCB 260 ECO skid-steer and a PJ 20' trailer, and I love them both. Truck did an awesome job towing as well, besides the 12.5 MPG, but...
