Purchasing a used commercial medium or heavy duty truck of any make, model or style is an investment in your business. Often, small to mid-sized companies, and even large companies in Texas, opt to buy used trucks rather than incur the cost of a brand new heavy-duty truck.

Buying used commercial trucks is a cost-saving option that will provide the buyer with a quality vehicle that can have tens of thousands of miles and years of trouble-free driving. However, this all depends on the seller and the ability of the buyer to know they are getting a quality truck for the price.

Private Sales

The most buyer beware type of purchase for used commercial trucks is through a private sale. While the vast majority of heavy to medium duty truck owners are going to be honest, they are also not necessarily mechanics or experts on brakes, engines or transmissions.

At the very least, the seller should agree to let the buyer have a mechanic of his or her choice take a look at the vehicle. While this does provide some piece of mind, it is not always possible or acceptable to the seller.

Buying Online

Buying used commercial trucks from reputable dealers by selecting from online inventory listings is becoming more common across the state of Texas. By choosing a reputable dealer with a top reputation in quality vehicles, this can be a cost-effective purchase option.

It can also provide the buyer with access to specific makes and models of medium and heavy-duty trucks that may not be available in the buyer’s general area. When working with these types of purchases, take the time to research the seller and make sure they are a recognized, reputable company with a proven record of offering quality vehicles.
