2006 Freightliner M2 Flatbed dump

[Jody Treadway]

We're updating our fleet and time for this one to find a new home.
We bought it 12 years ago and it has been meticulously mainteined ever since.
2006 Freightliner M2, Cat C7, 6 speed manual, 22' flatbed dump, 343xxx miles. 33k GVWR on the door.
Mechanically very sound, no rust, new windshield and in really good condition. Steers are in great shape, drives have many, many miles of life remaining.
Located in Fletcher NC. $16k firm.

This is going to be one of those things I regret not buying. How much does the truck weigh empty? 16k?

Right at 16-17k. I don't have an old weight slip. But I do recall the weight plus 20k cargo being under 38k.
Good faith would be 17k.

Thank goodness. Both my machines would look awesome on the back but would be over GVWR.

GVWR is just more government control!

And axle design maybe, but whatever…

Two years later and I still can't afford this truck

 

[Jody Treadway]

Price lowered substantially. We're ready to give it a new home.
Fired it up, topped off fluids and drove it the other day.

One would have to have a CDL to drive this? Or only be needed if it someone drove it with a load gross 26k+?

 

[jeepinmatt]

Technically you would need a CDL, but if you don’t pass a weigh station and aren’t doing anything to justify getting pulled over, you’d be fine. They don’t know what your door sticker says or whether or not you have your CDL as you pass by.

It's a 33k GVWR but looks like any other 26k truck. Matt's reply is correct.
For rural and/or private use, one could probably not have to deal with it.

Yup, but in all my "testing" there seems to be some considerable safety factors built into axle design.... And suspensions always seem to bounce back - except the front waggy springs on the CJ for some reason.

Ive strongly considered man over the past few days. However I would not be the one driving, and Im not the type of person to put my guys in that situation, even though it would only be used in local 9mile delivers from mfg to loading dock for pickup. Going to look into another military castoff flat bed. Thanks for answering the q's
