Here are 4 things that almost always reveal when a truck’s been neglected 👇🏼
1. Service history gaps — A missing record of fluid flushes (transmission, coolant, differentials) can mean thousands in hidden wear. Trucks can look clean up top while silently racking up damage underneath… kind of like that guy at the gym who skips leg day 🦵.
2. Uneven driveline wear — Vibrations in the steering wheel, odd noises at highway speeds, or shiny, heat-worn u-joints point to skipped maintenance on the drivetrain. Translation: somebody was playing “ignore it and it’ll go away.” Spoiler: it didn’t.
3. Electrical tells — Aftermarket lights that flicker, mismatched wiring, or corrosion around fuse boxes expose years of poor installs and moisture issues. Basically, if the wiring looks like a bowl of spaghetti 🍝, run.
4. Brake & suspension geometry — Uneven rotor wear, warped braking surfaces, or sagging leaf packs reveal an owner who didn’t stay on top of load balancing. Sure, it’ll stop… event...
