Used vs. New
Cost Savings Calculator

A question that is often asked is "Why should I buy used?"

Although new trucks generally cost less to operate and maintain, the initial purchase price, F.E.T., and higher insurance costs means higher initial investment and higher CPM (Cost Per Mile). When a used truck buyer considers all operating costs - like maintenance and fuel, taxes, insurance and depreciation - they can quickly see that their total "Cost of Ownership" can be reduced with the purchase of quality used equipment.

The calculator below can provide you with an estimate of your potential costs savings. Fill it out and see if it makes sense for you to buy used.
