Running bob-tailed, minimum, you will need a CDL Class B with NO air brake restriction and a medical card to operate legally in CA. A non-commercial Class B WILL NOT cover you.Thank you agazza2 for learning permit tip,right now I need to figure out what is the different between class B commercial / B non commercial
My buddy just bought two trucks here in Alabama and GP put a lot of pressure on him to use their shipper. There seems to be a lot of confusion about were the trucks are physically located (you can't preview them). Looking at the pictures I'd say they are near the National Guard complex in Montgomery. They told him if he picked them up in person he would have to pay the city sales tax there but if he had them hauled out (presumably by their carrier) he would not have to pay it. Seems strange to me.Bikeman is gonna help me with recovery from base to his storage -thank you Sir, and I tried U-Ship ,right now is 6000 $ for hauling and probably its gonna work for me. I was thinking to drive by myself because when I used Gov Planet website for shipping estimate the lowest offer been 11500$.
I know. It was more of a "watch out for those suckers". LolI have NEVER had a Swift truck issue.
Thanks MyothersanM1, many states allow a learners permit so the person can drive with a licensed Class A, B driver. It would be helpful for Toudi to have this so on the long stretches of open freeway he could help out with the long drive, and get some time behind the wheel. He would just need to take all the written tests to get the permit.Running bob-tailed, minimum, you will need a CDL Class B with NO air brake restriction and a medical card to operate legally in CA.

I paid NC sales tax. Justin from GP explained it like this. If it's being shipped you take possession in your state, proven by a drop invoice. If you come to get it yourself you are taking possession of the vehicle in NC and you need to pay the tax. Regardless of the fact your taking it to be registered in another state.wrecker, interesting about the tax, haven't heard of that here. This tractor is on the "main" DLA/GP lot on Bragg. Never had any issues driving off yet. And Yes, I'll take some pics and video (as allowed) of this recovery.
Look up TM 9-2320-279-24PTruck arrived yesterday. I would like to officially thank you Bikeman for his involvement and great help in recovering this truck and delivering it to CA. The truck came in very good condition. The only problem that I've noticed is with third axle, it's oil is leaking on the drum brake (broken seal). I've looked on the maintenance manual and I've found that part on the drawing but there is no info what is this part number or size. Do you have any suggestion for me? Thank you
No just used the trailer ramps and driving fast -), You prepared the truck really good, engine started from the first crank .I was thinking that I have to spend at least 30 min to started, what a surprise. Thank youToudi, as far as parts, I don't know man. I hope they didn't leak too much. Looks like everything went ok for the unload? you build a ramp or something?
