Why I Bought an Old 1996 Kenworth W900 (Guide & Tips on Driving Old Trucks as an Owner-Operator)

So why did Brian hop out of his 2014 Volvo and into an even older truck? Is the upgrade worth it for him? What are his reasons for going old? What are the pros and cons between buying new vs old as an owner operator?

The main reasons why drivers want to drive old trucks are cheaper prices for the truck and cheaper parts and repairs, no emissions systems and also no e-log. Are these things worth it in exchange for the lower fuel efficiency?

In this video, Brian will go into detail about the experiences that led to him buying an older truck, the classic 1996 Kenworth W900 and whether if he's happy with the choice that he's made. He shares tips for those looking to buy old and shows us a test drive.
