you'd have to get a CDL to even drive the thing and I don't want to know what it would cost to insure....
seems like it would be fun, but with all the BS, it wouldn't be worth the hassle.
All the race teams that would be looking for a rig like this are going to new stuff. That is why it is going fo so cheap.
The only thing wrong with the whole rig is that the sleeper needs redone. I would do that anyways and put couches back there for more seating.
It would be registered as an RV so you you wouldn't have to have a CDL to drive it.
The only big expense would be maybe an oil change every other year. It has great tires on everything. New batteries for everything. There is so much room, i myself can pretty much do whatever needs done on the engine. If not i have 2 desil machanic friends that would help me out.
I am talking right now to a company that only insures car haulers out of tennessee so im pretty sure it is going to not be that bad. 8 months out of the year it is going to be on storage insurance.
I am not rushing into this, i am taking my time and doing my research.
