Go to your local truck stop and find a "Truck Trader" magazine. If your just running local look for a heavy haul spec'ed truck. I absolutely love my Peterbilt 387 with Cat engine and 13 sp Eaton. Big hp and very comfortable. BUT repairs seem to be about double the cost compared to the Freightliner Columbia I prevously had. Used truck sales are as bad or worse than used car dealers.
