Tips to Remember When Buying A Used Truck When buying a commercial truck, pay special attention to the cooling system and the oil for instance, can be a simple indicator of how the truck was maintained and how it should perform. But taking the time yourself to make a couple simple checks, or at least ask, gives you assurance that the truck you’re about to buy will perform in any season. But to protect your truck and your business once you’re on the road, take some time to check out the value you get when you invest in an NTP warranty. When purchasing a truck, whether you’re an owner operator or a dealer, you should always take the time to check a couple simple components or systems that can tell you a lot about the truck and save you from costly repairs down the road.

So, creating your own preventative maintenance (PM) schedule and sticking to it at consistent intervals can prevent breakdowns which will help keep you on the road, save you money and importantly, keep you safe. A pre-trip/weekly inspection should include inspecting hoses for leaks, checking fluid levels, inspecting belts for looseness or fraying, looking for loose or broken components. Taking some very simple precautions every day on your truck will help you keep your business running smoothly without downtime and helping prevent huge equipment repair bills. And to protect your business and your livelihood when you do have major repair costs, ask your used truck sales rep about the value of a commercial equipment warranty.

For example, when the truck is producing emissions in excess of what is allowed under the Clean Air Act, the aftertreatment will shut the truck down, even if it is otherwise in good working order. To avoid a possible shut down, some in the trucking industry have been tempted to tamper with aftertreatment systems hoping to reduce or eliminate the possibility that the truck could stop operating due to the aftertreatment system. If you’re purchasing a used truck, make sure that the aftertreatment system, including the physical components and the ACM, is operating within required specifications. If your truck has problems with the aftertreatment system, check that the service facility follows all the right guidelines so your system functions properly and within industry standards.
