Great deal last week.

So we have been in the market for a new box truck for some time now, we currently have a 16ft box truck that is just not big enough for some of our large loads. Anyways I popped on Craigslist and typed in box truck and the first thing that popped up was a 1998 Ford Box truck with a 24ft bed. It was literally right down the street from us, so me and my partner headed over and took a look at it. It was cosmetically perfect and ran even better. They were asking 5000 for it but we talked them down to 4500. After tax/title/licences and two new front tires, we ended up spending 6000k. Best part about it, truck has 106,000 miles on it. Will be getting some signage put on it here in the very near future.

A mesquite man...I will be down in that town today doing a pick up.

I beenn trying to get with fro a few months now you are close and I been checking out your price list

I read here you may be able to broker the glass and plastic on crt's I have well over 100 at the moment

That's pretty huge and I'm super excited to see the signage...

Totally forgot about this thread, but here is our signage on our truck. Cost- 1400.00...Already paid for its self 10 times. We get multiple calls a day that say, hey I saw your box truck on the road and just wanted to know exactly what you take. Sorry it is kinda far away but I was sitting in my truck today and said, oh yeah I was going to put this on SMF.

I see why thats a huge billboard on the side of your truck, you really cant ask for better advertising, hmm got me thinking.

You know the 1400 outlay seems steep but we can vouch that the calls will at least double.
