Neighbor pulled a "Fast" one on me.

[Tony T.]

I pulled into my drive this afternoon and noticed my neighbor had a new 05 CTD hooked up to his 20ft trailer. Not to long ago we were talking one day, and I ask him if he was one that traded trucks every couple of years and he replied "no" I'll keep this 03 CTD at least a couple more years. He runs a bread route, pulling a 20ft trailer. His 03 I know was right at a 100K miles if not over. I am curious to know why he traded now if he was having any problems, or just wanted the 325/610. The 03 he had was a 305/555 with the 6-speed.

Yes, is there more to this story as I sure don't know what your neighbors reasons are for trading.

 

[abdiver]

Perhaps he just had some extra Dough

Maybe he traded for an auto.

 

[SRadke]

Or perhaps he just thought he kneaded one :-laf

Or His Business Was On The Rise.....

 

[RPotter]

sounds like he keeps busy, so we know he's not a loafer.....

 

[RTillery]

Nah, I think he just had some bread that was getting a little stale and wanted to get rid of it. (This has to stop)

 

[SRadke]

(This has to stop)

That's what I thought back in post number 5 but apparently the whole pun thing spreads easier than butter on warm bread.

Yeah... ... right.

 

[crobertson1]

Maybe the seats in the old one were getting crusty . Or maybe the electonics were toast.

 

[Tony T.]

Well his son just turned 16 and I have noticed the boy driving the 03 around some,he's kind of wild child, reckon he could of "toasted" the Cummins. Keep em Cummin! this is great. :-laf

[K5IP]

Anyway you slice it, he did the right thing.

 

[KCJackson]

So what color is the new truck... White Bread White, Whole Wheat Tan, or Pumpernickel Black?



(This thread was so painful, I had to join in... )

 

[GFrance]

Maybe he's tired of sitting in a cold truck & wanted bun warmer seats.

 

[klenger]

Bread Man

I've been doing the same thing up in Canada delivering pita bread,bagel,tortillas,baklava for the last 14+ years,only problem is that i get stuck driving a ford diesel(sorry TDR someone has to do it). Owners said that Fords were a better vehicle ,but hey they must rolling in the DOUGH to keep spending the money on repairs or there pockets must be full of DOUGH,transmission/,alternator/starter/frontend every 60000miles at $6000$7000+US. After about 200000miles these 7. 3 need alot of work,injectors,glow plug/ turbo,major computer problems/lots of smoke and they don"t like to start after -10/-15C. Mileage is poor,full,empty,mostly city/some highway best is 10/12MPG. Remember---NICE BUNS BREAD MAN :-laf :-laf :-laf and no honey i didn't give you that yeast thing you have

 

[BHartmetz]

Well, I suppose a newbie ought to get on this half-baked thread as well!



Does he do donuts in front of the house?
