I purchased a slightly used truck from Andy, which they put together for me. (Barko 80xle, with a hardin box). Truck arrived at out facility and was immaculate. We had a few issues with codes and a few other things, but andy reimbursed me for the small amount of issues that had arisen, and in a very timely manner. These things can happen on a used truck and I appreciate Andy taking the time to get this situation remedied. I will buy from them again!
Great group of guys that do great work!
Andy has an amazing team. From sales, to transport, everyone is great! Top notch company! Trustworthy! Responsive! I own a landscape company, and Have dealt with many dealers. This company is at the absolute top of my list. Its nice to see companies still operate with the upmost integrity. If your looking for the best dealership, with the most knowledge, you found it. These guys mean business, and deliver! No BS. BTW The truck i purchased was an amazing deal, and a needle in a haystack!! I would give 10 stars if I could. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
We worked closely with Andy for weeks/months to find the perfect truck for our company. He knew his stuff and helped us in every aspect. The truck was finished on time and without any issues. He recommended a great shipping company for us to use and they brought it to us on time. I’d highly recommend this company. I’ve bought 2 trucks from him so far and plan on buying more soon.
Great. Immediate unload. Friendly staff.
Over the past couple years I have had many dealings with Andy at First Fleet. They had built several grapple trucks for us both center and rear mounts. Andy has always stood behind his work.There of been several occasions where my phone staff has broke something due to negligence on our part and Andy has overnighted parts some at no cost just to see us back up and running.I have referred several other business owners in my area over to First Fleet and have heard nothing but the best in regards to the trucks that they purchased and their operation.I would personally recommend Andy and First Fleet to anyone looking for a grapple truck, chip or bucket truck. I personally know of Andy to be an Honest stand-up Man with morals & integrity.Prior to meeting Andy or working with First fleet I have worked with other builders out of the area and I have not had the best success but since our first dealing with first fleet we have not needed to go anywhere for any other builds.When you find something good you stick with it and that’s exactly what we have done over the years.Thank youVincent
I havent personally used this company but the company I worked for has many times so I had to deal with them to make sure they get paid for their work and service and they are reliable. what surprised me was Dealing with Evelyn was good. she was understanding with me being late on payment and told me were human and we make mistakes. So I give her props for thats considering the amount we owed ..
This place is great Ive enjoyed it. My business partner and I came in 2 weeks ago and we placed a custom order on a new grapple truck and the new addition exceeding my expectations. On top of that they gave us a custom paint job free I was extremely elated. Andy is such a great person and will address any of our needs.
I’ve bought three Grapple trucks from Andy. Have been very pleased. Best around when it comes to building Grapple trucks.Just recently bought a 2012 kenworth that is awesome . Got done in the time frame we talked about.First Fleet has been in business a long time and definitely knows what they are doing. Has competitive prices as well.
Best experience I had so far with any used truck dealerships. I went in looking for a grapple truck and this wonderful guy Andy help me with all the questions I was having. Normally I dont buy used however this experience was immensely great. All around around great customer satisfaction and I would definitely be returning soon.
While searching for months for a reliable grapple truck, I finally came across First Fleet. Not only did they have the grapple truck I needed, but they also perform high quality custom work for a reasonable price. The staff and owner were very understanding when I told them what I specifically wanted and accomplished the job within the time I needed. I am extremely pleased with the work that they did and I am definitely looking forward to doing business again with First Fleet!
Purchased a new grapple truck from Andy and he was able to exceed my expectations. Thank you Andy for making my business stronger and more professional with my new grapple and its new components. 10/10 would recommend for a great, durable, and safe grapple truck!
We are from Michigan and just bought a crane truck from Andy. Hes not a very truthful person. He lied and said everything worked great on the truck. The remote crane doesnt work, there was an issue with the transmission. He hides behind his secretary and wont call you back. Secretary calls me back and says we got a good deal on the truck they arent fixing it. I highly recommend that you not do business with this company. Shady business.
Purchased a used chipper truck from Andy sight unseen. Had some power issues with it and got stuck on a few hills but Andy stepped up and helped me out with the repairs and getting it back to working order. I Would definitely purchase another truck from him in the future.
We were recently shopping around for a used Truck and I came across First Fleet Truck Sales. Not knowing what I would come across with, since my prior experiences from used truck dealership havent been great.....one because they lie and sugarcoat everything not knowing you are getting fooled. They are the exception. My husband recently bought a Grapple Truck and it was in great condition. Andy bent over backwards to make sure we were taken care of and there were a few adjustments that needed to be performed after the sale. Being it was a used truck and Andy at First Fleet Truck Sales brought in the truck and fixed the minor issues at no charge. We would be back again to buy another truck without a doubt and We recommend First Fleet truck Sales to anyone who wants quality truck at a fair value.
Bad experience! Bought A truck in early August and met Andy at the yard. Andy told me Truck would be finished completely reconditioned and ready the following week. I finally received the truck in mid October. 2 months to get Truck after Andy told me it would be ready in a week. I also paid 6k for for a new serco grapple, when Truck arrived in Idaho it had a very old used grapple on Truck, Andy only refunded me 3k. Andy never apologized for anything. Many things wrong with Truck when i received it. Andy talks a lot about himself and how great he is, how wealthy he is but in my personal opinion guys that talk like that are con artist. Be careful when buying a truck from Andy, lots of false promises. Shady used car salesman! I could go on about a lot of things but I think u get the idea.
Me and my girlfriend are calling from Monday, every day, we were promised we will get the call back the same day.... now is Friday 3:10pm, still didn’t get the call back. Unbelievable
This has been a great company to work with. We have purchased numerous trucks from First Fleet. Each truck has been exactly as described and discussed. We will definitely use them in the future for any trucks that we may need.
Did not have a good experience with this company. Did not buy the truck. I will spare you the details, but if you do consider buying a truck from this company please personally inspect the equipment and have an independent certified third party do an inspection on the vehicle. Their former business name is Andys truck and equipment you can find other customer reviews on the internet there.
Ive recently went here because I was in dire need of a elevator bucket truck for my landscaping business as the one I had was out of service. Andy showed me and had a great quality of selection and he gave me excellent amount of details. Im ecstatic that I came here as I havent had any issues at all.
I have been doing business with the owner for ten years. He has handled every transaction with honesty and integrity. They are very easy to deal with and follow up on every detail. I highly recommend them!
Great customer service. Had a truck breakdown while cleaning up after Hurricane Irma and he had us back up and rolling in an hour! Thanks again Andy.
We have been doing business with Andy from First Fleet Truck Sales, Inc. for over 30 years. In that 30 years we have built a strong relationship. He always comes through and does exactly what he says he will. I have never met anyone with more knowledge of used trucks than Andy himself.
First Fleet built my 2018 Peterbilt Grapple Truck w/Serco Loader- I contacted a few different companies regarding a new grapple truck and I had a lot of questions. Andy at First Fleet is the only one that could answer every question on the spot with a straight and direct answer. Everyone else was unsure of this or that and would need to get back to me etc.It was not a hard decision for me to see who was best qualified and would provide the best customer service for my build.Andy kept me updated throughout the entire process including pics of the build. During the build I called First Fleet with a question and spoke with an employee, Paul, who also was a straight shooter with all the answers.Final result, I ended up with one awesome truck that was finished in nearly a week sooner than the quoted time.
Just got my 3rd truck from First Fleet, nice truck. Andy definitely tries hard to please. There were a couple small issues that were not a big deal, but Andy was willing to make it right.
Great service from Andy and his team! Recently got my custom truck with a lanau body/serco unit and it turned out great. Highly recommend them! Always like to support a local family business 😊
I purchased a truck from first fleet truck sales and was very happy with the result! I recommend anyone who is looking for a place for custom trucks to come to first fleet truck sales
My husband and I recently bought a Peterbilt grapple truck and we had a ton of questions but Andy ensures us with a great responses at no charge which is a sign of relief. I e suggest anyone to come here for any questions at no charge.
Great experience doing business with Andy! Quick turnaround and excellent customer service!
I have worked with Andy over the course of 16 years and found him to be truly reliable and a man of his word. When you work with his company you will have a great experience.
They are very friendly people.Also they do good work and will build you the truck that you want..Plus they have been in business for about 40Years..I recommend who ever is looking for good equipment to go there!!!
I’ve bought a good deal of used equipment and I can 100% say I’ve never been as burned as Iam currently being roasted by paul and Andy at first fleet. I payed up front $80,000 for a grapple truck. Long story short this truck has not seen one jobsite. The truck was delivered to my front door.. which I was very grateful for..actually my dad and grandpa came over that day cause we were all pretty excited... I pull the truck off the trailer and make it not even a full block down the road when I can hear a LOUD sound... a very loud sound... and no I’m not a mechanic, as paul constantly reminded me.. but I’m also not deaf and the GRINDING was not normal. So now Ive got a $15,000 bill coming from international next week when I go to their repair shop to pick up my new truck! Lol truck needed a new cam and new transfer case....keep in mind the only place I have drove this truck since I signed on the dotted line is the mechanics.... paul tells me I bought a used truck, “ just put it to work tyler” thanks paul! The part that pisses me off the most is that they can’t reason with me and make this right. How the hell should I be held accountable for this? all Iam told is “put it to work tyler” “the trucks fine” ya ok guys! Tell that to international. call the Service center and ask for jay he will give ya the run down.I’m sure some trucks at first fleet are great. Just know that if you get stuck with a lemon. Your on your own.
Very professional and easy to work with. Great group of people, thanks again !
JimBlue Ridge Recovery has very high regard for this company as we have dealt with other companies in the past 30 years and not received this kind of service. Upon purchasing a new Serco loader from Andy at First Fleet Truck Sales, we HIGHLY recommend anyone looking for a new or used loader to contact them first and foremost..not only will you receive quality workmanship, friendly faces, honesty and integrity and an upmost pleasant experience but We were also continually kept updated on the progress of the removal of the old loader and installation of a new L8500 loader with a 48 waste grapple which met all our expectations, we presently have another one of our high rail trucks getting updated boom work done to it. We thank Andy and his crew for their expertise work. Yours truly, Don & Debbie
Bought a grapple truck with a lanau body and it was beautiful!! Highly reccomend these guys!
I went down to see a truck listed on internet...got there only to have some old man act very rude and arrogant and tell me they had no truck to sell me...i called again the number listed and spoke to andy ..he came within 5 min..took me to a different location and showed me the the truck in question...i liked the truck..and although it was not finished ..he told me it would be 69k out the door and i agreed...i left a 1k deposit to assure our deal...he gave me some ladys number for the financing...but she wanted to screw me with no vaseline at a 21% interest rate...he then told me i got a different guy...ill send u the number ..hell get you financed no worries..that truck is yours.. called guy no answer ever..called him..hardly any answers...told me truck would be ready in one month...never got a ph call back...when i called first fleet..they told me andy was unavailable on vacation..and that they had returned my 1k deposit last week....they never gave me an explanation or even let me know what they where doing..meanwhile im waiting on a truck that they were never going to sell to me...everything was a lie...The best part was i told him in email and txt messg ..that id buy it cash ...that i got the whole amount and didnt need financing and they still ignored me...very rude..very unprofessional..very uneccessary..lost a good customer and good word of mouth...i found the very truck he was selling on a previous auction for 25k...thats what andy paid for it...he put a bigger bed and four new tires and paint..im pretty sure he was making a profit at 69k...it was a 2005 international..log truck..thats about what they run for..In the end it was better for me..i found a 2006 sterling dual axle with less miles and in excellent condition condition..auto...with prentice grapple retired from city of orlando for 65k cash....i will buy my bucket truck next..but it will not be from first fleet ..They have no buisness ethic ...and specialize in run around tacticsHow do you return deposit and not even let customer know...i found out a,week later...and only because i called looking to speak with andy..if not i woulda been waiting two months ..to only find out they sold it to a higher bidder possibly...unethical and low!!First fleet is not the best choice in my opinion..be careful !!
I have done business with First Fleet for over 5 years and have always found the staff to be courteous and professional.They have always addressed my concerns and answered my questions.
I have purchased over 7 trucks in the last 10 years from Andy at First Fleet Trucks and they always have done a great job, no surprises, no issues, they are great people to do business with, reasonable and knowledgeable.... I always call them first when I need a truck or equipment.
*FIRST FLEET TRUCK SALES INC TAKES MUCH PRIDE IN DEALING WITH THEIR CLIENTS NEEDS..AND HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED IN THIS INDUSTRY SINCE 1967..it’s unfortunate that some unpleasable clients have to post their personal views which have with no real credibility other than getting in the last word.
They have quantity of truck is in good condition
DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
Spare your self the headache I bought a 2000 international grapple truck it was a mess there was a lot wrong with it I have not been able to make any money with with it due to all the problems steal working out the bugs Andy told me he did the best he could for 57000 thousand that is bull the truck was suppose to be ready to work it was not so I have had to spend a lot more on it have not been able to make any money with it yet
