We bought a new truck to go to work with in logging and oilfield deliveries, such as hauling logs and transporting pipes and mats to the fields. All of it requires highway-driving in order to deliver to and from. The DOT parked the truck permanently for being too heavy on the steering axle for use on the highway. The truck is illegal on the highway as is. It can't get permitted for higher weight, unless heavy equipment is attached permanently, thus reducing versatility and adding heavy costs to do so. The seller refuses to take responsibility for having built the truck too heavy. After seven months of being grounded,(and us having paid a lawyer $5000 and having a huge loss of income) the seller offers nothing else but selling us another truck and taking the one in question as a used trade-in. It being illegal reduces the value even further and we still have to pay the 250'000 dollar original price to the finance company or even on top of it. We want the dealer to buy the truck back from the finance company, thus releasing us from the contract and reimburse us the payments made to the finance comp. Lawyer agrees but doesn't do anything, except having us stop making payments and now the finace comp. wants to reposess, which is what the seller is waiting for to happen. I consider to go the way myself.
