Got it at a great price... A very great price :)
- juliangoldsmith 12y agoBut to what end? If I could buy a brand new dump truck for $1000, does that mean that I should?
- reeses 12y agoI suspect you already know the answer to that. A brand new dump truck would be clean, with a minimum of oil, grease, dirt, or grime. I'm sure you could construct a large enough accommodation inside the bed of the truck to have the equivalent living space of a medium sized sailboat. The great part of this is, when all of your clothes smell like diesel/gazole/etc., people will assume you are a liveaboard! You would have excellent security. If you had a "home invasion", a simple press of a button would disorient your attackers and incapacitate them much in the way of the wicked witch of the East. If they have ruby slippers, I believe they would be yours by right of conquest. Also, you could park almost anywhere you liked, at any time. No one questions a dump truck being anywhere, because they have so many uses. With a prudent selection of magnetic door logos, you could park for a nap in the middle of Market Street in San Francisco, Fifth Ave in NYC, or right in the middle of Piccadilly Circus.

- DanBC 12y agoYes. There are many uses for dump trucks and you would quickly get back your initial $1000, and any other costs such as storing it between jobs, servicing it, and so on.
- lgieron 12y agoIf you don't know what to do with it, and you bought it below market, just sale it for market price, book the easy profit and move on.
