What a lovely red dress.😜
In the immortal words of the late, great Capt. Midnight, "that girl might have some dairy blood in her!"
As for buying a used FedEx truck, hell no! Those things are rode hard and put up wet.
Oops, double tapped it....
Surprise, surprise. A commercial truck that is rode hard and used for deliveries for sale.
Oh Man I gota have one of them worn out trucks for my own use as a daily driver.
And what a warranty. Warranty, lets see now.
I've got some Ocean front property in Arizona for sale. A liitle ole school teacher was the previous owner and very rarely used the place.
You say you voted for Joe, then you need this place.
I dont know if its still the case,but when UPS retired a truck it went to the crusher.A UPS mechanic had to witness and verify that the vehicle had been destroyed.
I heard they ( UPS ) re-used the running gear and replaced only the bodies, not sure about that but the axles do look pretty old fashion compared to newer ones.
"Never do wrong to make a friend----or to keep one".....Robert E. Lee
I think I have heard brinks does that re use the chasse or maybe the body ? I have heard they never sell a used truck there all scrapped to keep there trucks secrets to the grave
UPS indeed crushes the trucks when they're done with them.
And by that time, they're ready to be crushed. They're driven till they break, then patched together and driven some more. And they're the cheapest thing that can be purchased to start with, so old fashioned or primitive is an accurate description.
Fun Fact: Till a few years ago, a lot of the trucks didn't have power steering.
