Trucking: o/o, cummins engine, turning radius


Question
Hi Israel,i am a company driver and i am looking to pay my own truck. I like the Cummins engine, but i am not sure what kind i should get Pet, Volvo or fart line. I know it is a personal choice but what you think i should get, this will be my first truck so i need a reliable one but at the same time not very expensive to fix.
                                   thanks

Answer
Hi rasheed,

My personal favorite is a Volvo with Cummins or Detroit and straight 10 speed transmission. It is the best over all truck, it has a large interior, a great turning radius, and has a great ride. I can drive 500 to 600 miles in a Volvo and not fill tired. You can pick up a good Volvo in the $30,000 range.


Good Bless, Israel
