Global Used Truck Sales

First off as I mentioned to you I do feel terrible that you had experienced problems with your tractor a couple weeks after your purchase; however, after our recent conversations I feel obligated to set the record straight. You purchased a 1995 tractor with 991,000 miles on it at a discounted price, which I had recently purchased off of a private individual. When you asked me to verify if there was any engine work by the previous owner I specifically told you that we could NOT verify or document that there was any engine work done to the tractor. The other part that you forgot to mention was that you personally spent hours here performing a detailed inspection, and that you also test drove the tractor and pointed out to me every item of concern, you discussed these concerns with your company and made an informed decision to purchase. At no time did I or any representative of Global Used Truck Sales express or imply any warranty whatsoever. You also signed not one, but two AS-IS disclaimers stating that we would not warranty an 18 year old tractor. Furthermore, this tractor was also driven back to Georgia without incident, and it also managed to deliver freight its first time out. As you stated to me…you have been doing this for many years and there was no way to know if or when an engine issue will happen. You are correct…there is no way for anyone including our dealership to anticipate these types of problems. There is adherent risk when purchasing an 18 year old tractor with almost one million miles on it, and that is also why it was priced accordingly. I do appreciate your business and I personally wish you all the very best. Sincerely, Brian
