thats good advise i learned the hard way frist month i was o/o on what i thought was a good USED truck was at (cat) putting on a new head.alot of money spent and lost at same time. that started to spending spree every time i turned around it was something.atleast with a new trk you can make some money to help pay when u need it

[j&l]

you heard right a 9/10 can sit alot cause you need more cars to move and it sucks to sit especially when its hot and we all know what kind of money you can spend at trk stop or u are at auction with no services.im to the point if i cant make x i will not go out.a cheap load dont pay for the risk IE broken hydro hose expensive tires and so on.

The best way to pay off debt with 1 truck or 2 is to be in the driver's seat yourself.

have 2 kids at home and wife is due in 38 days. plus, i have extra income coming in thats not from my truck. I have to stay at home. no choice in the matter.

There are a lot of drivers on the road with wives due and with many kids. Its a choice you that you make. Not that you have no choice. Not picking on you Coop, I make the same choices I have 2 kids and I CHOOSE to spend as much time as I can at home and out goofing around with my family. And I know in the end it costs me money but heck kids are only kids once.

Myself I'd look for a less risky and simpler solution look for a route you can run with very minimal away time. I've run like that pretty much for the last two years and while I'm not getting rich I enjoy my family time and have nowhere near the headaches you have experienced with all the drivers and BS.

They probally screw you over though. If they will finance you it would be better to pay $50,000 for a real truck.

BOD wastegate kits are designed to reduce harmful power robbing Drive Pressures. The 6.7 is equipped with a VGT (Variable Geometry Turbo) which has shown itself to be inefficient in properly evacuating the increased volumes of exhaust gasses produced by a Mild to Heavy Modified 6.7 cummins engine. Installation of the External Wastegate Kit allows the harmful exhaust gasses to be vented properly instead of causing increased cylinder pressures, which have been directly linked to head gasket failures. Insurance for your head gasket are the primary purpose of the EWG kits but a positive side effect is a increase in usable torque. Increased drive pressures create additional parastatic loss. Installing an EWG kit is very effective protection and prevention of very expensive engine repairs and an inherent benefit of an increase of useable torque
