Shopping for a new truck at an Auction 

Only 4 days left to enter to win the portable AC! Not many have entered you have a great chance!

An auction is where you sell your problems.

As a company driver for the last 12 years, I've been through all the brands but mack, and multiples of them...the most dependable by far have been the freight shakers.

hello

Why would you even consider buying a truck from these guys

😅😂😅😂 Robert why u always talking about Thailand girls having a weiner?

“cascadias just feel cheap” 🍻 truth

That seat belt on Lita is beautiful. Glad she wears it.

I personally don’t like anything about the cascadia I drove one for 5 years and they were horrible, the seats were horrible and the mattresses were very thin just complete plastic plain Jane fleet truck.very same things were also with the international prostars.

It’s like 18 year old kids join the ARMY and come home married to a stripper and a car with 21% interest.

Don't buy any Fed Ex trucks

I leased a 2014 Blue KW T-680 with the VIT Diamond Interior. Loved that truck. Great interior, great ride, double bunk, lot of room. I miss it very much.

Lida should get her CDL and get her own truck and dump you and your camera at the house. She pretty much does everything anyway.

Look at a kw t680 the ride is nicer then the frieght shaker

2019 Cascadia and newer you can sit up in bed with the top bunk down

don't ever buy a truck at auction!!

The 680's are the closest in sleeper configuration to my 387... lots of room. My sleeper though is only 4 inches wider than my cab which gives me a ton of room between my seats... good walking room. Can't wait to see what you wind up doing!

That blue KW T680 is the ticket. X15 👍 I would stay away from anything with a one box.

You can listen or not.. but as a driver who driven kw T680's for the past 4 years.. they are very reliable trucks.. they may not have the amount of cabinets as the Cascadias but I never had any huge mechanical issues with KW.. as long as you keep the maintenance up and take care of it, they will run and treat u good. All u need for Kws is deep cycle batteries and u will never have issues . I think u will be happier with the T680..

If you ever go to a place like that again, take your jumper box. That’s what we did.

Seeing all the problems with this new stuff i would just go back to driveing somebody elses truck and i would find a owneroperator truck that has been tooken care might be xtra money but thats me keep grinding guys your doing it

i c u r superdan fan//haha,but good job

Love the thailand comment!

Great teamwork you two 💪☝️👊

Thank you for showing us the trucks with you, was awesome. Hope you find a gem

Good luck whichever way you go. The trucks look nice. The economy scares the heck out of me. I’ve always been told, to see how things are going with all the markets is check what’s going on with the Railroads. They are a big indicator for what’s going on with the country and shipping.

You may already know but I'll say anyway these new trucks are recommended oil change is about 75000 miles with synthetic oils personally that's ridiculous. I'm a believer in premission. Dollar for dollar you'll come out cheaper and easier to work on. Prices are falling on premission because of California rules

I would do as I did....frame out your motor and redo everything you touch....way cheaper to keep a truck you have run awhile

Hey you guys are great, it might be a time for a new truck it looks like you’re kind of roughing it with that Mac. I really like the Kenworth T6 80‘s myself I like the wraparound curtain it makes for a much bigger area and convenient not to have all of that crap that you need to put in the windows. For me and APU is the must. I had a Lotta good luck with KW’s they don’t turn the best but you’re a decent driver you could deal with that. You’re right the Cascadia‘s feel cheap drive down the road like shit. Never drove a Volvo lotta people like them but I’d take a KW or a Peterbilt any day of the week . Really staying up on maintenance will keep most trucks running fine unless they’re cursed. Good luck I hope you stay in trucking love your videos love the Lita and the pups.

Either a Weiner or a world champion ping pong ball master 🤣

That FL cass at 20:00 sounds like the quantity control valve or fuel pump is going bad. The slight rev every 2 seconds. Why I stay away from modern junk.

I would lean towards a Kenworth also or even better if they have any a Western Star or Peterbilt.

14,000 hours with 400k miles is huge idle time. I’m 1,000,000 miles with 19,000 hours for comparison

In 2012 I went directly from Tampa to Atlanta GA at Schneider National used trucks and bought a 2006 Freightliner Century. It was a hit or miss and I got a very good unit. Pulled containers, flat bed, vans and drove it for 8 years and sold it for $23.000 after paying $22000 in 2012. I still see this truck rolling through Tampa. Today Schenider trucks run over $70,000.

Blue truck seemed nice

Stay away from automatic

Hi Lita and Robert. This auction place can't be the only one. By now, the auction has taken place. Of the trucks you showed, none of them looked good enough for your money, in my opinion. We will soon see your decision. Have good days!

I don’t know what truck you’re going with, but I would suggest a freightliner Cascadia unless you’re looking for resale value then you might go with a Peterbilt or Kenworth but if you want a truck that you can find parts and people that can work on it easily, I would consider just a freightliner Cascadia at least a 2019 or newer

T680 vs Volvo 870. I hear the KW has a terrible turning radius vs the Volvo, you can get the Volvo with the dinette down stairs and it has a decent refrigerator. As long it was ordered with all the bells and whistles.

Man I hated those insulation loads. Picked up several of those, and there was always some destroyed on the front, and couldn't keep 'em from shifting.

Check with a dealership. Might even get some warranty with it. Worth a try.

there at the auction for a reason..... keep what you have, you know the problems already... a different truck all new problems plus a payment...

T680, like over the road. What happened to our RU-vidr ….Will drive for tacos.??

From experience Volvo has the widest cab on the market, Volvo engines are very reliable and the automated transmission is the best, I have had them all. hands down the best auto out there. Had 5 Volvos over the years and never had an issue with them..

Western fire trucks are actually well taken.Care of and some needs to be replaced before they sell it.They fix it.They replace it

I would recommend skipping the ritchie brothers auctions, only problem trucks get sent to auctions

Love my t680 mx13 has done me right

Every Action I've ever been to you have 4 or 5 working and 25 barking orders not doing shit. And they all had an attitude. Scared to death there going to have to do something.

This day it's really uncertain on making decent money driving truck as an owner operator.

Try going to a credit union, I started a business account at mine and I got a great interest rate on my used truck and later my trailer. I hope this information helps you.

Stay away from cummins isx15 unless you have money to spend every other month on Emmission

Busy at the sleeper and chairs not the engine and leaks 🙄Are you guys looking a one bedroom mobile home or trucks

When we buy a used diesel, we have our mechanic run his computer on it to check the history

My boss just brought a Kenworth K200 cabover (I'm from Australia) he paid $120k at an auction ended up costing another $27k for repairs, would be pretty hard to find a turn key truck ready to work from an auction. Good luck with what ever you choose

if a Detroit is idling like that stay away. could be a sign of fuel system problems.

Idk why but I love that you have a dog named Mack and you drive a mac😂

Boring can be good most times! Boring and high pay is even better!

I seen a Lot full of Nice Looking Trucks in Monroe Ga. @AAA Trucking.

19th sitting out a t-storm in Indiana ☔️

Heya, have a good weekend!

Beginning of the video.. Lose the crap music

Never buy at auction

Keep the Mac

I would pass on any of them, you would be buying someone else problem

That big tractor is a landfill compactor there are a lot of them.

Stay away from freightliner’s

not a w9 in sight and most of these are autos,ill pass,lol.

That’s a Cummins is that not correct? Those engines sound like they knock but they’re really not.

Making big mistake buying one at auction

RUN from places like that

8:46 that caught me off guard😂

Whatever you do don't get an automatic. Real truck drivers don't drive automatics

Look 4 wfx used trucks

Loved that blue kenworth

Stop twisting your straps yes I do drive flatbed and anybody will tell you not twist your and yes I do have a flatbed

Warning stay away from the Cummins ISX engines they suck. I own three of them and they are never ending money pits.

What ac yea ll giving away. ?

You think that you are the old God mighty truck driver well guess what you're not

I need it really bad

I don’t have any Copyrights to any music or videos on my Page!

Look at the Red One

Just Remember Bro when you buy a truck from the auction your buying someone else's problems that's why it's sitting at the auction in the 1st place and that's when everyone starts Delveloping problems is around 400 to 500 thousand miles so they Dump there headaches off on someone else. If you're looking to spend that kind of money on a truck I would just invest my money in what I already have because you already know what you got and the problems that need addressed and actually you will be saving money instead of spending 30 or 40 geand on something you know nothing about, I seen the issues you had with the mack and just couldn't find the Right mechanic to fix the problems but you eventually did and she Runs great now from what i see in your videos so I would just invest in what I already have if I was you.

Nothing but troubles with all those emissions trucks u want a truck with no problems go premissions 12.7 detroit 500hp cat c15 easier to fix if u do have break down I have a truck u could of looked at last time u was in wisconsin in eau claire u was 45 min from it only 18k I've had nothing but problems out of egr trucks def crap

It goes like this … Peterbilt’s are the caddies … Kenworth are Pontiac’s … everything else are the pintos … Mack’s are the AMC’s 🤷🏻‍♂️

Why you guys looking at Freightshakers? You should be looking at Pete’s or a good KW or even a used Reliable car hauler tractor with that condo on wheels sleeper.

That first black Freighter with the table and Murphy bed is called the drivers lounge, it’s about a $4,000 option. The brown interior is another $4-500. I’m sure there’s some other options I don’t see. The KW when you were in the back the white thing you were pressing was for the inverter to turn it on and off. Depending on how much you want a good place to buy dependable used truck is Pedigree Truck Sales (Prime Inc).

I'm glad I sold my used truck in 2021 when used truck prices spicked. I saw recently the prices on parts and it blew me away as I am a company driver now. Never seen so much owner ops selling their rigs today. I don't know how they make it with insurance, parts, batteries that are expensive and only last 6 months, gallon of lucas used to be $22.00, now $ 43.00!

You never buy anything out of an auction. That's where people get rid of their money pits. There is something always wrong with them. That's why they go to the auction. Your money go ahead and waste it.

Why don't you guys call Alison at haigia she's got a truck work ready don't remember all the particular s might be worth your while.

Stick to the problems you know! All them used trucks are just problems you don’t know about

It’s buying a new house and a new car at once… You know that the sellers would have sold privately if they could. Auctions are where the bottom of the barrel is cleaned out.

If you are gonna buy a used company truck you are better off buying direct from a company selling them. Auctions are designed to get rid of the junk no one wants to buy and there is too much risk in them.

Rode hard, put up wet! Auction only wants to see your butt and your money on payday. As the old saying goes:”You Bought It Toyota”.

I love my Volvo. I had a 2006 international 9400. I drove the international for 10 years before it got wrecked. Purchased a Volvo after looking at trucks. Volvo has the most room and space of all the trucks I looked at. I have a 2020 860 .

If you're serious about buying a new truck..... get a used Volvo.

🎉🎉 2 👍👍 up yall y'all stay safe out there 🤞💕🥾🇺🇸🍼🐶🐕🦴🍗🍀💕🥾

Peterbilt or KW with the Cummins X15 is my suggestion.

I hope you find what you looking for in a descent condition its sucks going to a place where you have to wait for along time and then ppl give you you attitude about help then on top of that being so lazy smh 🤨😤 make not won't to come back be safe out there buddy 10-4🚛
