What should I pay attention to when buying a used truck?
1 Answers
When purchasing a used truck, the following points should be noted: 1. Body section: Pay special attention to rust conditions on various external parts. Lack of maintenance often leads to rust formation. Observe color discrepancies in repainted areas and paint residue near rubber seals. Vehicles with low mileage and very fresh paint may have been involved in accidents or undergone major repairs. Checking for welding marks on the truck can reveal if it has been in accidents or extensively repaired. 2. Engine section: The engine should be clean, start quickly, and idle smoothly without any shaking. 3. Transmission section: Engage a gear, pull the handbrake, and then release the clutch. If the engine doesn't stall, it indicates severe clutch slippage and wear.
