think the T660's have bigger sleepers too. How many miles do you get at Roehl?

Not sure if they are actually bigger, or just better designed for more storage and comfort.

I'm in a prostar 70" single.
I'm love the interior of the kw's, mainly the new gauges since '08. But if i got to choose id definitely want a flat top sleeper. I got to climb in one on a 389 awhile back and loved it! Its like a little cave.
With roehl, now that I'm in flatbed division, Im seeing an average of 2200/week. Plus all tarp pay and that jazz. My miles are because of me though. I don't rush putting up my securement after a delivery. I tale my time cuz I'm very particular about where everything goes on my truck

I am the same way. Everything has a certain place. If I don't put it back in the same place I will spend forever looking for it when I need it.

Our people in Gainesville are the same way. They think ten chains, binders, and straps are more than enough.

we had 20 chains at swift but they were all 5/16. only loads that ever required that many though were chassis' for vehicles and those small coils that had to stand up in a row.

They are bigger, the Peterbilts 379's/389's/386's all have 63" midroofs. The few 387's that they have and wont be getting any more of have 75" sleepers. And the T660's have 72" sleepers.
Lone star is a heavy haul company big pieces of equipment usually only get 4-8 chains so no need for 16
