I am thinking About A larger truck. Does anyone Know where to find used spray trucks like the large National company's use?

 

[vegomatic40]

Westheffer.com in Lawrence KS...Talk with Mark Cruse. Unlikely to find used stuff from him but he may know where to find it and he is the absolute pump/spray system Guru.

At the end of the season you will most likely see many advertised

I was thinking about buying a used 4700 International. Right now I use a trailer with a 500 and a 125 gal tankes. WHAT TO DO??

That guy sold out to Scotts I think.

Email this guy, [email protected]

He can hook you up with a used TGCL truck for a good price.

And best of all;.......He's in Texas too............

Best leads are going to be Mike at Fleet Force USA..

They sell from $4,000 NPR's to $13,000 for the loaded IHC's

Well the leads have helped....Monday I flew into Dallas and found the truck I was looking for. Mike is getting it ready for me to pick it up in a few weeks. It is a 95 IHC with 125000 miles. The hard part is to find one with A\C that is not from Fla. they are rust buckets. So think you all for the help. I well keep everyone updated. And get some pic's on here where I get it.

The City of Wichita (KS) is having an auction the 27th. I remember seeing a "spray truck" on the sale bill. PM me if you want to know more.

Mike at Fleet Force is a good guy. First hand Experience talking here. I paid $ 0.08 on the dollar new equipment price. Sure it is used equipment and needs work. But what you must realize is we are talking over $50,000.00 trucks brand new that you can buy so cheap you can pay cash. Work on it over the winter and you will have something in the spring. Of course you can buy brand new stuff and make $ 900.00 a month payments for the rest of your life.

I feel Mike at Fleet Force is as honest as a salesman can be. Yes I called him on the phone and he gave me no story. I went to Dallas Texas on his word. I came home 1300 miles with a good truck. Not a perfect truck. But with a little TLC I will have a perfect truck at a cost I can live with. BTW Isuzu trucks are good for a 1,000,000 miles. As far as diesel engines go PTO idle will not hurt them. Look at the number or 18 wheelers that never turn their engine off.

Just curious what would a 96 Chevy 3500 dually box truck
100000 miles with heavy duty hitch, 100 gallon spray tank,
200ft of hose, manual rewind etc be worth>?

100 gal tank and only 200 feet of hose on a manual reel is worth about $300 maybe more maybe less. The real cost is the power reel and Pump & motor. Brand new poly tanks are cheap.

Gas box trucks Are worth what every you can get for them. Check out e-bay or your local Truck Trader There are a lot of Box Trucks for sale. Diesel box Trucks 1996 are running about $6,000.00
