Schmidy's is a SCAM - Dishonest, Shady, and Will Sell You a Machine NOT READY FOR WORK!!!!…read moreIf you're thinking about buying from Schmidy's, DON'T. RUN. This dealership is a shady, lying, corner-cutting joke that will take your money, send you a half functional machine, and then ghost you the second you need them to follow through. How they SCAMMED me: I agreed to purchase a crane from them in December 2024 and flew out to inspect it. What I found was a disaster. The crane was completely unready, had broken controls, leaks, and obvious mechanical failures. I told them straight-up: It wasn't worth their asking price in that condition. They knew they had been caught selling junk, so they promised: They would repair everything before shipping. They would make the machine right. I would get a crane that was fully functional and properly inspected. They LIED. What they actually did: Barely cleaned it up to make it look passable. Put the covers back on and reattached a turn signal--basic cosmetic fixes to make it look like they did something. Fixed the upper throttle (one of the easiest fixes possible). That's it. They did the absolute bare minimum to get out of the deal with as little effort and financial loss as possible. They didn't care if it was safe, operational, or even legally compliant. What they IGNORED (Despite Their Promises): Massive Oil Leak - The oil pan or rear main seal was visibly leaking, yet both their service guy and DOT inspector magically missed it. Total incompetence or outright fraud--take your pick. No Upper Fire Extinguisher - A basic safety requirement completely ignored. Their crane inspector didn't even note it. Computer NOT Calibrated to the Crane - Are you kidding me? The computer that runs the entire crane wasn't even set up correctly! But their inspector somehow signed off on it anyway. Shady, Corrupt Inspections Their service tech, DOT inspector, and crane inspector all conveniently ignored major safety and mechanical failures. Either they're completely incompetent, or they're knowingly signing off on bad equipment. Either way, Schmidy's is sending out unsafe machines and calling them "ready to go." Post-Sale? Total GHOSTING Once I got the crane and saw the scam they pulled, I called Brandon immediately. I was promised by him that Schmidy's would follow through. Didn't happen. I'VE SENT COUNTLESS EMAILS.... I've texted Jesse, the owner, directly, telling him to check his email so we could figure out a solution. Ignored. I followed up. Ignored. At this point, Schmidy's has taken my money, sent me a crane that's not "work ready", refused to fix their mistakes, and is actively avoiding all communication. Schmidy's Business Model is SIMPLE: Sell junk equipment under false promises. Slap on a few quick, worthless repairs to trick the buyer. Lie about inspections or have shady inspectors sign off on unsafe equipment. Take your money, deliver a machine that is not ready for work, then disappear. DO NOT BUY FROM SCHMIDY'S. They are scam artists who will lie to your face, ignore real mechanical issues, and leave you holding the bag the second you need support. I'm currently pursuing legal action because they refuse to step up and fix the disaster they created. If you value your money, your time, and your safety--go somewhere else. Schmidy's is nothing but a shady operation that will sell you nothing but false promises and run when confronted.

I pick it up 7 days later and drive it 20 miles and truck does exact same thing that it did before the ecm was put on. Take it back to them. 9 days later they say they got it figured out. Drive it 10 miles and truck is worse than original. Now i cant even drive it. They order the part to fix it on site and say they'll send a guy out first thing the next morning. 10:30 rolls around and i havent heard a thing. I call and ask when the guy was coming. Service guy starts studdering saying they ordered the wrong part and theyre checking to see if distributor has the right part like that takes a couple hours to do. I have been lied to on so many occasions by these people. A well known mechanic i know even said before i took it there that he would be surprised if anyone there was even smart enough to work on this truck. I shouldve listened.

I had a 2007 that they diagnosed an fixed right away, that is the only thing positive I can say about this place outside of them allowing my truck to sit there since July after stuffing over 3000.00 into it an it still was fixed. In what world do you drive a truck into what suppose to be a respectable shop and you have to get it towed ? I knew the battery would possibly be dead after all those months of sitting but for them to tell me they tried to jump and it wouldn't do anything an thhen displace the type of apathy an nonchalance they displayed is completely unprofessional and unacceptable in my humble opinion. They all but said get your truck tbe hell off our property after paying over 3000.00 in repairs for a truck I drove in but had to tow out and a 1600.00 bill on a different truck to replace A/C an had to take it back on three separate occasions an to this day the air still doesn't work. I honestly don't know how this place is in business based off my experience with them. RUN away from this place!! Ridiculously over priced and service is the worse since I been in the trucking industry.
