THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
In the dusty outskirts of a small trucking town, there lived a scrappy tabby cat named Rusty. Rusty wasn’t much for lounging in cozy homes—he preferred the hum of engines and the cool shade of trailers parked at the local Thermo King dealership. His favorite perch was atop a gleaming Precedent S-600, a single-temp reefer unit that had just rolled into the lot, its CARB Evergreen badge glinting in the sun.
Rusty had a knack for picking winners, and the S-600 was no exception. It was a beast of efficiency, powered by a Yanmar 4-cylinder engine spitting out over 25 horsepower, with microchannel coils that kept it cool even on scorching days. The drivers loved it—double-digit fuel savings, no pesky diesel particulate filter to fuss over, and an SR-4 controller that kept loads like strawberries at a crisp 35°F or ice cream at a chilly -20°F. Rusty didn’t know the specs, of course, but he could feel the steady purr of its 60,000 BTU/hr cooling power beneath his paws.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
One sweltering afternoon, a driver named Jake pulled in, his trailer loaded with fragile cargo bound for a grocery chain 300 miles away. He’d been sweating bullets—his old reefer had conked out, and the S-600 was his last hope. Rusty, lounging on the unit’s 1,700-pound frame, flicked his tail as Jake fired it up. The SmartPower standby kicked in, sipping electricity instead of guzzling diesel, and Jake grinned as the temp dropped fast. “You’re a lucky charm, cat,” he muttered, tossing Rusty a scrap of jerky.
Word spread about Rusty’s “magic” S-600. Drivers swore the unit ran smoother when he was around—fewer breakdowns, tighter temp control, even better fuel logs on the TracKing telematics. The dealership didn’t mind; Rusty kept the mice away and drew a crowd. One day, a buyer from Omaha offered $19,500 for the unit, citing its 7,500 hours and pristine condition. But the manager hesitated. “Can’t sell Rusty’s throne,” he chuckled.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
And so, Rusty stayed, king of the Precedent S-600, a scruffy guardian of cold chains and quiet hero to every driver who passed through. The unit’s Evergreen status promised years of service, and Rusty? He promised to keep watch, one purr at a time.

It also helps monitor temperature, offers rapid alarm detection and security alerts when the doors are opened, and detects fuel loss.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
With ConnectedSuite™ telematics, you have the information you need at your fingertips. Every S-600 unit comes equipped to deliver the data you need, and does so for the first 24 months of ownership with no service charge.*

In the sun-bleached outskirts of a trucker’s haven called Dusty Hollow, a wiry tabby cat named Rusty ruled the roost. He wasn’t one for cushy cat beds or suburban lawns—Rusty preferred the gritty charm of the Thermo King dealership lot, where trailers and reefers hummed with purpose. His undisputed throne? A Thermo King Precedent S-600, a single-temperature refrigeration unit that had rolled in fresh from a trade, its sleek 81.5-inch-wide frame parked under a crooked oak. With a weight of 1,700 pounds and a Yanmar TK488CR1 engine growling beneath its hood, it was a beast Rusty claimed the moment he saw it.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
The S-600 wasn’t just any reefer—it was a marvel of modern cooling, part of Thermo King’s Precedent line from the 2010s. Its Diesel-Direct Electric (DDE) design paired a 30-cubic-inch, 4-cylinder diesel engine—cranking out over 25 horsepower—with electric components for efficiency that shaved 10-20% off fuel costs compared to older units like the SB210.
Rusty didn’t know that its R452A refrigerant, charged at 14.5 pounds, had a 50% lower Global Warming Potential than R404A, or that its microchannel condenser coils boosted heat transfer for faster pull-downs. But he could feel the steady thrum of its 60,000 BTU/hr cooling capacity at 35°F, dropping to 35,000 BTU/hr at 0°F, and a solid 24,000 BTU/hr at -20°F—enough to chill anything from apples to ice pops.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
One blistering July afternoon, a driver named Jake rumbled into the lot, his trailer sagging with a load of peaches teetering on the edge of ruin. His old reefer had sputtered out 50 miles back, and the dealership’s S-600—complete with SmartPower electric standby—was his lifeline.
Rusty, sprawled across the unit’s 28.5-inch-high top, blinked lazily as Jake hooked up the 230V 3-phase plug. The standby kicked in, bypassing the diesel tank’s 50-gallon capacity to sip shore power instead, cutting emissions and noise to a whisper-quiet 68 dBA. The SR-4 controller lit up, its diagnostics flashing green as Jake set the OptiSet Plus profile to 35°F. Within minutes, the eco-pulldown tech had the cargo box cooling fast, and Jake scratched Rusty’s ears. “You’re a wizard, cat,” he said, tossing him a chunk of sandwich.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
Word of Rusty’s “lucky” S-600 spread like wildfire. Drivers swore the unit’s forged steel connecting rods and barring inserts kept it running smooth under Rusty’s watch—no breakdowns, no hiccups. The factory-installed TracKing telematics beamed real-time temp and fuel data to fleet managers, who marveled at the unit’s precision. One driver claimed the optional ThermoLite solar panels—mounted near Rusty’s favorite nap spot—kept the battery humming longer, saving him a gallon of diesel on a cross-state haul. Another bragged about the fresh air exchange feature, swapping stale air for crisp outside breezes while Rusty dozed.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
The dealership couldn’t explain it, but the S-600’s CARB Evergreen certification—no diesel particulate filter needed, just pure mechanical fuel injection—seemed charmed with Rusty around. It met California’s toughest emissions rules indefinitely, a rare perk for a unit that old-school mechanics could still wrench on without fancy ECUs. One day, a buyer from Omaha rolled in, eyeing the S-600’s 7,500 hours and pristine logs.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
“I’ll take it for $19,500,” he said, noting the LED lighting kit and chrome accents gleaming under Rusty’s paw prints. The manager hesitated, glancing at Rusty stretched out atop the 49-inch-deep frame. “Can’t sell the cat’s castle,” he grinned, shooing the buyer off.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
And so, Rusty reigned supreme, king of the Precedent S-600. The unit’s slug-relief discharge valves promised years of durability, its USB-port-equipped SR-4 kept diagnostics sharp, and Rusty? He kept the mice at bay and the drivers believing in a little extra luck. From peaches to pork chops, the S-600 and its feline guardian turned every haul into a triumph, one cool purr at a time.THERMO KING PRECEDENT S600 For Sale Online
