my driver actually had some good friends of ours that picked him up and brought him home to AL. he went to birmingham today and picked a new turbo.
we bought it at the freightliner place, get this, and i already knew it. freightliner buys the turbo from CAT and resales it to me, CHEAPER than if i went to CAT and bought it from them.
i just don't get it. total cost was alittle over 1800.00 for the turbo, seals, O-rings, gaskets, bolts and nuts.
so my driver is gonna drive back upto NC and put the turbo on and then drive it back home.
when he gets back, i am actually gonna try to sell the truck and trailer, and use the money to keep the business afloat and pay off some long overdue bills.
trucking business is very slow right now.
