Me and my dad are going to look at this 1989 r model. I used to work for this company 2 years ago. I drive this same truck for 2 years with the company. It has a 300 in it and the mack 5speed. It used to be a wawa dairy tractor that they made into a tanker. The whole time i drove it it never let me down. The truck last time i drove it runs good does not leak any oil. They only thing it lacks is factory A/C. Which I'm not worried about. It has around 350,000-400,000 miles. I almost went into the septic business about 1.5 years ago but couldnt swing the truck i wanted to buy.
But my dad knows the owner of the used truck dealer who is selling it. They are asking 19,900 but he thinks we can get it below 18,000. The vacuum tank and pump setup is less then 8 years old. The good thing about this truck is i drove it myself so i know all about it. We will be looking at it 2morrow or Thursday. When i got out of the truck it was used as the company's spare after the comapny got bought out my a bigger septic company. I'm still friends with my old boss/owner so i will be calling him in the next couple days to see what he has to say about me maybe going in the septic business. So i will keep you guys updated.

I only drove that pete a handful of times when i was with the company for 3 years but i can tell you one thing i wouldnt pay no more then about 10,000 for that POS. That truck had alot of problems. I kinda feel sorry for the sucker who buys that.
