You wont have any problem selling that truck. Farmers making the transition from gravity wagons and grain trucks will pay full price now because everything is priced out of sight. The set back front axle helps them make it in and out of tight spots. I still have the first conventional I ever bought. It's all factory 1987 Freightliner 250" WB with a 425 Cat with Jake Brakes. 1.8 million miles and it's nice enough we just done an in frame on it. It's been plated for every state for 30 years and has seen most of them, but not anymore. just can't put it to pasture 😂

If Gentry and Sons trucking see this. They may buy it but I really can’t say. You may still see it on their KZbin channel. They have a passion in running old classic trucks. Though it is hard to sell something that’s been with the family for a long time. Though as long it sells within the family. You will still see it. Here’s the thing, that truck might come back to you before you know it. You’ll never know how but it sometimes happens. Hope everything goes well and stay safe once you start your journey on the road again.

O-H-I-O Porter greetings.🥰 Dude, I’m glad to see Some Day getting some attention, but selling her?!?! I’m shocked! I hope that your family member does buy her! Then you will still be able to see her whenever you want.😎 I share your feelings on this. It’s such a pretty truck…primer & all. I like a set-back axle truck.🥰 My brother had one that was a single axle & integrated sleeper. What a truck! All those memories in that truck….make sure you have some good pics of the truck & maybe even write those stories down. You can sure get attached to a truck, especially if you think about where it came from, all the time you spent in it, reflecting on the things in your life around the truck, etc. It hits you right in the “soft spot”. I’m that way with my REO. I started driving this truck when I was about 5 years old & I spent a lot of time with my dad & big brother riding around in it. Such sweet memories…good & bad both!😏 Here’s what my REO looks like now…kzbin.info/www/bejne/n37PZaWDoNurrtE Well, I’m not sure what to say, but it’s good that you have given a family member the 1st refusal option. I RESPECT that! 🤩 Hope that you’re enjoying your time off…as much as you can. Is that what really got you to thinking about selling it? I know that when a truck sits…a lot of things start happening to it, even the smell of it changes. 😳 Take care my friend. Remembering Millie. 😔 Blessings! 🥰🇺🇸✌️

Well I hope your W-900 comes back soon and you sell your freight shaker. Let it sit for 5 years kind of says a lot of good memories there. Anywho have a great and a safe day, happy trails…
