    A good friend of mine wants me to Team Drive (paper logs) in a KW Studio Sleeper..... I've done Team in a Pete 587 and that got crowded....
    the KW S/S looks smaller to me...anyone have any thoughts ?

    Really just depends on the people, that's a question only you can answer.

    A Studio sleeper too small?! Man people are getting picky these days. Try running team in a cabover and get back to us how rough you have it in a Studio. :biggrin_2559:

    If people are going to team might as well have some comfort to go with it.I have drove a lot of otr trk that were real small solo and didn't mind it one bit.In fact I would prefer small trk for solo but team,I need some space.

    A KW Studio is 86", one of the largest non custom sleepers out there. Most sleepers are around 72", you could spend $60K at ARI.

    Its bigger than my aerodyne 72' sleeper and u say it is small. Studio sleeper is good enough for two drivers.

    Studio sleeper is the only sleeper that I didn't have enough stuff to fill all the closets. Where did you get the idea the Studio Sleeper is small? It is palatial compared to most sleepers.

    My S/S has more room than I know to do with.I could throw a party in here.Teamed years ago in a cabover so if you don't have enough room in a studio you aren't going to make it
