usmcjimbo Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Got an offer I could not refuse on my 1979 Mack DMM 6x6 Dump truck - it is on it's way to a new home somewhere in Africa. The way the dump body was configured on it made it impractical to install a pintle hitch for a trailer - gotta have a trailer with a dump truckWill be looking for a B81SX dump or tractor or possible DM or RD SX dump truck Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/11199-an-offer-i-couldnt-refuse/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT I bet it will keep on working for a long time. When things are scarce the value of it goes up so those trucks over there are kept running and maintained as best as possible.

They wired the money to his account - all on the up and up before we released the truck and title. Pretty hard these days to get anything on the boat without a clear titleYou are right though you have to be VERY careful who you are dealing with. I sell heavy trucks and equipment for a living, but generally do not deal with brokers and exporters - they call because they can't find it themselves, don't have any real money, want to steal everything and want you to do UPC (unpaid consulting) on their behalf. I just tell them to lose my number. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/11199-an-offer-i-couldnt-refuse/#findComment-42533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
