Don't be so hard on the COE's. I liked them fine, or the one I had anyway. One thing you can say for them.... they're great to get around with.

I would suggest that you look for a tractor though if you're seriously thinking of going that route. I'd look at the dealers lots too, and don't be afraid to look for something up to 15 grand. I found my 9400 that way. They wanted 15 for it. I offered 10. They said no, but what about this Kenworth.... I say, sounds nice.... time elapses while I round up the money.... Call back and it's gone. I ask if the Eagle's still around... 'Yep, out back'. How much? '15'.... Offer 10 again.... 'Tell ya what... you give me 10 minutes and I'll call ya back'.
Calls back.... 'It's there, another guy is looking at it, and whoever cuts the first check for 10 takes it'.

DON'T be afraid to try that on them. If times are tight, they'll take it because that's what those trucks are worth for scrap, and if some local jobber or farmer doesn't take them for a float truck or whatever, SCRAP is where they're going.
Winter is he best ime to ind them like that if you can wait, but around here right now the forestry business is about screwed so there's any number of HEAVY SPEC, good trucks with big wetlines for sale for next to nothing. Many many 'Star's with 460+ Cat's and N14's, 13 and 18 speeds, 46000# Rockwell's and 14-16 # fronts. Nice heavy trucks that will take a pounding.
No need to limit yourself to the auctions. Look around.

Rod
