Used Truck and Trailer Sales in North Carolina
Don’t Settle for Second Best - Choose National Fleet Management
Second-hand trucks and trailers are a great alternative to buying new ones. They’re a cost-effective way to enhance your business with quality vehicles. However, there are, of course, some downsides.
What if there are hidden issues? Has it been looked after properly? Can I verify the maintenance history?
All of these concerns and more come through your head when looking for second-hand trucks and trailers. And that’s totally understandable; this is a big, often expensive, commitment. A commitment that, if you don’t get it right, could quickly become a costly mistake, especially for smaller businesses.
The Risks of Low-Quality, Second-Hand Trucks & Trailers
It’s an unfortunate reality that there are a lot of low-quality, second-hand trucks and trailers on the market. Falsified documents, subpar repairs, and just shady people looking to make a quick buck out of you are everywhere. It’s also very easy to fall prey to these tricks, especially with the range of options available.
Making the mistake of buying a low-quality vehicle from an unscrupulous dealer, no matter how good the price seems at first glance, is only going to have negative consequences in the long run.
Increased Operational Costs: If the truck has not been looked after correctly, then it soon becomes your problem. Fixing damaged or worn components can take a huge chunk out of your budget. Poor fuel efficiency is another thing that plagues these vehicles, and with the price of diesel on the rise, this is another headache you cannot avoid.
Increased Downtime: If you buy a truck that has not been properly maintained, then you will have a massive challenge keeping it on the road for a decent amount of time. Poor maintenance leads to more time in the shop rectifying these problems instead of on the road completing jobs.
Irreversible Damage to Your Reputation: Constantly missing jobs through breakdowns and system failures is only going to send your reputation one way: straight down! Word of mouth spreads fast, and even the most loyal of customers will soon jump ship, potentially to a direct competitor.
Compliance Issues: Safety and environmental standards are always changing, and your truck needs to keep up with them. Failing a DOT inspection can be an expensive and time-consuming mistake to correct. Failing environmental regulations is even more devastating, which could see you slapped with a fine in excess of $45,000 per non-compliant vehicle.
Safety Risks: Trucks that are low quality or in poor condition can pose significant safety risks to the driver, other road users, and pedestrians. Malfunctions due to worn or faulty parts can lead to accidents, potentially causing injuries or, in some cases, fatalities.
These are just some of the risks you can fall victim to when purchasing used trucks and trailers. Making the wrong decision during this process can have a disastrous impact on your budget, operations, and reputation.
