    Full-size mostly FL Cascadia, but I do see quite a few midroof trucks, not the light weight trucks. I was told they only order midroof trucks if a L/O orders one but company drivers are still likely to get one. 10spd for now but they will be switching to the DT12 automated manual as soon as spring.

    When your climbing grades fully loaded you'll learn to appreciate that automatic. Just my opinion
