    Do any of u drive a KW? Any tips on backing them up? I can tell this is quite different than the shakers.

    Just have to anticipate the turns more, start turning a little sooner than you would have with the shaker. I'm having to re-learn how to back in my 379exhd. It's completely different, I will say, I get a pull through spot when I can haha

    T660, it is a high roof but there isn't an extra bunk. So far it is a serious upgrade from a 07 shaker.

    I drove one of Roehl's KWs for 2 weeks and hated everyday I was in it. There was no room in it at all and it just beat me up because of how it was set up. The best thing in it was the mattress.

    At the Kwik Trip in Menomonie, WI. I was told freight this weekend was going to be really slow. So to ensure I stay busy, myself and couple of other Roehl Drivers have been rounded up to run walmart dedicated loads for the weekend out of the DC here. This should be interesting.
     
    Meltom and Bayle Thank this.

    Sitting North of Denver to do my 4 stopper tomorrow. Hope there is something heading... ANYWHERE tomorrow so I can be moving some of the weekend. Maybe I should have said HOME this weekend. :biggrin_25511:

    I like the narrow cabs, one thing I couldn't stand about my shaker was how much room it had. I'm in a 63" stand up sleeper in this 379. I've hit my head a couple times lol, though I do love the sleeper layouts
