Heavy load vehicles – more commonly also refered as trucks in Europe or USA and lorries in the UK – are used to carry heavy and intense load. Trucks also carry a very broad definition that includes all sorts of commercial vehicles. These trucks often consist of a loading platform and then a traction platform that carries the load. The many types of trucks include light commercial trucks, medium-duty trucks, heavy-duty trucks, and super heavy-duty trucks, also called dumpers.
These vehicles get their names from the amount of weight that they can handle and transport efficiently. The light commercial trucks can hold up to 3.5 tons, medium-duty trucks can handle 7-10 tons, heavy-duty trucks can handle 10-25 tons, while super heavy-duty ones can handle up to 35 tons.
Tips on Buying a Used Truck
Buying a used truck can be quite a hassle, and there are certain things that you always have to be prepared for. You will probably have to spend hours finding out which trucks will better fit your company and meet your personal needs. And this is all after you factor in the cost of the truck and whether or not you can afford it.
It is safe to say that buying a used truck can be very difficult, strenuous, and time-consuming. So to better help you in your search for the best truck, here is a list of tips that can make the journey to buying a truck a lot easier. And although it may seem overwhelming, it is nothing that you cannot conquer with the help of this list.
Why Is the Truck Being Sold?
The first thing that you will have to consider in your buying process is why the owner is selling this truck. The most obvious reason for checking these details is simple, finding out if there are any problems with the truck early on. Finding out why they are selling their truck can also help you better estimate the cost of the truck.
It is fair to say that no truck that you will find will be perfect. Very few customers are lucky enough to find trucks with no problems at all. However, you will have to decide if this problem is that big of an issue for you. Almost every truck will have some small problem; you will just have to find the ones that you can manage.
Find out what needs replacing
Speaking of asking questions about your vehicle, you should also find out if there is anything in the truck that needs to be replaced. If the owner fails to give you a complete list of the trips that the truck has taken or any other relevant information, you may need to find out for yourself. Hire a professional technician that can spot problems in the truck. You should also insist on the record of the truck to better analyze the problem.
Ask for Accident History
Trucks go through a lot of wear and tear over the time that they spend on the road delivering cargo. And during trips on the road, it is very common for them to run into accidents. But these accidents should not be a major problem, as long as you can get a history of all of the accidents that the truck has been in. Even if it looks brand new, you don’t want to get a truck that has been in too many accidents. So be sure to ask for a comprehensive history of accidents. This can save you a lot of money.
Check the Engine and the Oil
Buying a truck is a major investment that you don’t want to be making every year. And since the engine is the part of the truck that takes goes through the most pain, it only makes sense that you want to ensure that it is working just fine. You should also check the engine model, as some engines can have problems built-in that start to show up later on. While you're checking the engine, you might as well check the oil too. The current situation of the oil in the transmission and the engine can help you better understand the state the truck is in.
Determine the Right Horsepower and Towing Capacity
Another thing that you will have to consider when getting the right truck is the towing capacity that it will have, and the horsepower that it will be able to generate. Depending on what you will be using the truck for, you will have to decide if the towing capacity and horsepower are just right.
Budget for Repairs and Upgrades
It is always good to plan ahead, especially in the case of your trucks. Trucks go through a lot of heavy-duty work throughout the year, so it is very likely that they will need new parts eventually. Budgeting and preparing for the parts that you may need in the future is a great way to save yourself from the sudden expense. You should also add this cost to the overall investment, to better understand the budget that you are making.
