"1968 5 ton wrecker 20,000 lb boom 21' reach rear winch , front winch needs
repair and bumper needs replaced. truck hase 30,000 k miles runs perfect .
We did a recovery job last year with this truck pulled a 40,000k trackhoe
from a bog hole over 1000' to hard ground this truck made 24,000k in 12 days
on that one job we were the only guys crazy enough to tackel the job truck
could use new rear cabel on big winch tires are in good shape . motor is a
multi fuel turbo diesel." (sic)
It has, according to the description, 30,000 K miles. That equals 30,000,000
miles.
It pulled a 40,000,000 pound backhoe, and made ($)24,000,000.00 in 12 days.
This makes an obvious case of the importance of paying attention in math
class, when they discuss the significance of the comma, and the meaning of
the letter "K".
I don't know about you, but were I to make $24M on one job, I'd keep the
truck.
