Sadly enough, when those rolling pig pens are traded in at a dealers, they are pimped out, so they don't stink, don't have corn dogs smeared on the wall, and all the hanging pine trees are gone. But the really rotten thing is, that if a driver, be it a company driver, or an owner, leaves a truck looking like that, he also left the engine without proper and regular attention. So that shiney trade in truck that you buy for an ungodly amount of money will leave you on the side of the road, if you don't pick wisely. We never even looked at a used truck that we couldn't get the computer history on. That won't tell you how they kept the inside of the truck, but it will tell you how the engine was maintained, repaired, and all the computer codes that were thrown. You can garner alot of knowledge just from that.

So I was on ebay and just for S&G I looked at some of the Semi trucks they have for sale..NO, Brett, not even remotely thinking of buying one. Just kinda wanted to get a look inside some of them and see the layouts and subtle differences between brands. Boy, was I shocked at how AWFUL some of these trucks looked. Even fairly new rigs looked like they had been completely used and abused. Kinda disappointing to see the poor shape that some drivers leave their trucks in, and How much $$$$$ they are asking for these rolling pig pens..
