    I'm not trying to have room for activities and I'm sure at some point I'd get used to it. I can say I've never been in a new unibilt truck. Newest narrow cab I've been in was an 07 and wasnt a fan. The 579 unibilt is way wider opening obviously and that's my only real time spent in one so I'm biased to the room it had as well

    Pete's were typically a touch lighter yet. My 83 359 with 63" flat top was 15,9xx something according to the tag. I was under 18k full of fuel and all my crap. My 89 T600 with Aerodyne sleeper on the other hand was nearer 20K loaded up.

    The 89 379 came with 63" sleeper and the weight tag on it is 17205. The 83 was an 3406A, and all the rest have been B models. The 89 379 has a retarder as well.

    Typically it seems as if older trucks were quite a bit lighter in general.

    Big fan of the aerocab for sure. Because headroom.

    Less insulation? Less computers? Less government mandated junk?
