What Type of Truck Should You Purchase

I still don't know the answer to this. I've come to the conclusion that it depends on the person and what your plans and goals are for your truck. But here are some things I thought about.

1. Diesel vs. Gas

2. New vs used and used vs super old:)

3. What size truck do you want? 12 ft, 14ft, 16ft, 18ft, 20ft, 22ft. I wanted an average size 16ft or 18ft. I didn't want too small as I needed room for a lot of merchandise but I didn't want it so big I would be really scared to drive it.

4. Is there a particular shape you want?

boxie. front is a little rounded.

5. Do you prefer a certain type of door. Barn doors or roll up doors?
 barn doors

 roll up
6. Do you care if their are shelves in the inside already. (This mattered to me, but may not to most)

7. Manual vs. Automatic

8. Do you want a van, box truck step van, school bus, a pull trailer or RV. I've seen mobile boutiques in quite a few things. If you can imagine it you can do it.

09. What's the max mileage you can deal with. (one mechanic told me mileage doesn't matter just depends on up keep of truck) lol don't know how much I believe this.

10. Do you want to find one with AC or generator installed already (most of the ACE tools ones have ac and generator options already)
