Hi, I'm Kate

I'll help you find the right truck or car, without the runaround.

I sell used vehicles at Tampa Bay Truck Factory — diesel trucks, work trucks, SUVs, sedans, EVs and hybrids, and pretty much every make. Tell me what you drive now and what you need next, and I'll put together a few that actually fit, with clear numbers.

I answer messages myself during business hours. No pressure, no obligation.

Why work with me

Buying should feel simple, even on a big truck.

You deal with me from the first message to the keys. I'll tell you what a vehicle is, what it isn't, and what it costs.

No games

A no-pressure approach

Ask me anything, as many times as you need. I won't push you into a vehicle or a payment that doesn't fit your life.

Financing

An option for most situations

Strong credit, rebuilding, or buying your first vehicle — I work with lenders for a range of situations and I'll tell you honestly what I'm seeing.

Trade-ins

A straight number on your trade

Bring me what you're driving now and I'll get it appraised and give you a real number, fast.

Numbers spelled out

I'll walk you through the out-the-door figure line by line so nothing surprises you at signing.

I know these trucks

Diesel and work trucks are a big part of what I sell, so ask me about miles, maintenance history, and what a truck is actually set up to do.

I handle the paperwork.

I get the title, registration, and financing documents prepped before you arrive, so you sign, take the keys, and get on with your day.

How it works

A shorter path from question to test drive.

Start wherever you are: a budget, a timeline, a trade-in, or a specific truck you already spotted.

  1. 01

    Tell me what you need

    Send me your budget, your timing, what you're trading, and how you'll use the vehicle — towing, commuting, family, work.

  2. 02

    I send you real options

    I go through what I have in stock and send you a few that actually fit, with clear numbers and honest notes on each one.

  3. 03

    Drive it on your schedule

    I'll confirm the vehicle is still here and have it ready at a time that works for you.

  4. 04

    Sign and go

    Paperwork is prepped ahead of time, so the last step is short.

What I sell

Trucks are my thing, but I'll find you anything.

Everything I sell is used, and I work across makes — so tell me the job you need done and I'll match a vehicle to it.

Trucks & diesel

Ford, Ram, Dodge and more

Diesel and gas trucks for work, towing, and daily driving. If you tell me what you're pulling, I'll steer you to the right setup.

Family & daily

SUVs and sedans

Toyota and every other make, sized for car seats, commutes, and road trips.

EV & hybrid

Lower fuel bills

If you're curious about going electric or hybrid, I'll explain the trade-offs plainly before you commit.

Luxury & commercial

From nice to hard-working

Luxury models when you want the extras, and commercial vehicles when the vehicle has to earn its keep.

Not sure what you can spend?

Send me a message before you start shopping. I'll give you an honest read on payments, trade value, and what's realistic right now — it costs you nothing to ask.

Questions

What buyers usually ask me first.

Clear answers before you decide what to do next.

Can I check that a vehicle is still available before I drive out?+

Yes, please do. Send me the vehicle you're looking at and I'll confirm it's still here and set a time before you make the trip.

Do you only sell trucks?+

No. Trucks and diesels are a big part of what I do, but I sell used vehicles across all makes — SUVs, sedans, EVs, hybrids, luxury, and commercial.

What if my credit isn't great?+

Still reach out. I work with lenders that handle a range of credit situations, and I'll tell you straight what I'm seeing rather than string you along.

Can you take my current vehicle on trade?+

Yes. Tell me the year, miles, and condition, and I'll get it appraised and come back to you with a real number.

How do I reach you?+

Call or text me at 813-753-0901, email Kate Diesel, or message me on Facebook or Instagram. Whichever is easiest for you.

Do I have to come in to get started?+

Not at all. Most of my conversations start by text or message, and we only meet up when you're ready to see something in person.
