How long should you keep the truck?

Good truck care usually lasts longer than uncared ones. How long do you think the truck will last without regular maintenance? What if all transmissions, engines, and some components fail?

If a major component such as an engine fails, you should consider replacing the old truck with a new one. However, if certain truck parts, such as axles or suspensions, fail, you can easily replace those truck parts. Trucks provide regular service, are in good condition and can be stored as long as they can travel from point A to point B.

New trucks will last about 10 to 20 years, depending on how they are used. New carrier trucks usually come with a service plan that covers the services of major and minor trucks. If an engine breaks down, you will need to replace it (it can cost as much as a new truck) or get a new one. If the truck is still in good working condition, replace only the truck parts that need to be replaced.

On the other hand, the longer a truck is stored, the less valuable it is. When the value of a truck reaches a point where it is less than that value, it’s time to let it go. In other words, if a truck causes more problems in terms of engine failure or regular parts replacement, it may be better to invest in a new truck. Needless to say, we now have to do new insurance, service plans, licenses, labeling and branding. By investing in new trucks, especially for long-distance driving, old trucks can now be used for short-distance delivery and pickup.

Ideally, you should store your truck for as long as possible. It is also worth considering trading in a truck before the service plan expires, that is, five years ago. Then consider buying a new or less than a year truck so that you can continue your service plan. This will minimize the service cost for 5 years. If you can get a maintenance plan that will be better.This should cover the cost of maintenance required and also the cost of new ones Truck parts..
