    The 680 has a nice steering wheel and a quiet interior.
    One piece windshield.
    The freightshaker rattles squeeks and makes me want to puke.

    Been in several different trucks, none of them made a dimes worth of difference to my paycheck.

    I agree. But to me, anyway, the truck does make a difference.

    These guys have an empty trailer dropped near me advertising the big 60 cents per mile and of course "The Road is calling you" in giant letters on the side ...So Embarassing,on a busy road where the general public just laugh at it.

    Maybe, but if I see a company's equipment on the road and its a POS tractor and a rust bucket trailer I would not even consider working for them. A company has to have some pride in their equipment and appearance for me to work for them.
