Yes, it doesn't have to be new, it just can't be junky, a fixed up truck would look nice. The guy I worked for had 3 dumptrucks, one of them was an old International loadstar 1700 he had bought off the state highway dept., only his wan't all that pretty and he hardly used it, only reason he bought it was to haul his skidsteer and backhoe around. His had the 9.0L and the boss was the only one who drove it, I do know that truck was very expensive to repair and had some things wrong with it. Local truck center got $75 an hr to work on it and the parts were all very pricy, I remember the brakes were shot, and the 2 speed rear motor that switches ratios was broken, cost him $3,000 in repairs, didn't use it since and now it's currently up for sale for $8,000. Way too much truck for me though, I have no use for anything that big.
It's all about Image, people want to hire you to beautify their place, you show up in a junky truck with trash for equipment, thats not a very good image and would actually be very embarrasing to the estates people so they wouldn't hire you in the first place and make them wonder if you know what your doing because obviously you don't take pride in your appearance.
