    Today We had lunch at Chicken on the Bayou, off 1-10 in Breaux Bridge. We split a dinner. ILLE DE CAPRI. Crawfish Etoufee,over rice, topped with Catfish. Along with one Crab Pistolette each. 10 hours later, I’m still full.

    Change the engine out for a Cat 3406E running a good tune at 750HP and then you would be on to something.

    Well would actually prefer an auto but rears would be based on tires size, final trans ratio, planned cruising speed, and optimum engine speed for economy.

    Keep in mind I am primarily a door swinger that stays west of the Rockies where speed limits tend do be 65 or under and I tend to run about 65 give or take a couple cause I hate spending extra money on fuel.

    Kenworth W990 with minimal chrome.
    76” mid roof sleeper with the back wall storage.
    Vantage Interior in Grey (Could be tempted by the LE)

    250 in or so WB (shorter if I can)
    Engine X15 605V 605hp/2050 ftlb
    trans FO-20E313A-MHP, could go 18 speed.
    Low Pro 22.5 on Aluminum rims
    All wheel disc brake
    13200 front axle
    AG400L 40k rear for torque--brand is negotiable.
    Single exhaust back of sleeper.

    Want to see 200 to 250 gallons of fuel – configuration may be dependent on emissions box.
    Maxwel ESM with 3 AGM bateries
    Tri-pac apu Or Frame mounted box for Generator and Mobile home AC unit.
    Bunk heater
    Inverter
    Fridge

    The wife has the the home fairly squared away except that she is waiting on shelves and pullout racks from me in a couple places. I on the other hand need to put up an outbuilding for tools and toys. I
