Advantages of Buying Used Bucket Trucks
Cost Savings
A considerable benefit of buying used digger derricks and cranes for sale is the amount of cost savings it accrues. Although new bucket trucks may retail for more than $100,000, similar models of used bucket trucks may cost about half the price. This allows you to make significant savings that benefit your company's bottom line.
Fewer Mechanical Problems
A common misconception held by some is used bucket trucks have more mechanical problems than new ones. The truth is used bucket trucks are not likely to have some of the mechanical issues you may see on new trucks. This occurs because of two main reasons; first, the engines of used trucks are past the break-in period. This refers to the amount of time the pistons and bearings in an engine take to set and seal properly. Secondly, many of the mechanical problems trucks experience during the first years of use have already been resolved in used trucks and more likely to occur in new trucks.
