    I wouldn't even begin to try to drive a truck that long.

    You'd need both lanes to turn just the truck itself, imagine putting a trailer behind it.

    I'd only consider stretching a truck that much for use as an rv.

    About a month ago, there was woman driver they had on the Discovery channel, she had one, said it cost her around 70,000, it was really nice, a bathroom, and a shower eating area, kinda reminded me of a 5th wheel actually. I thought you go girl!!! :biggrin_25517: Sorry everybody, but all I remember about Jimmy Carter, is the peanut man, so I cannot reiderate on that one.

    Wasn't the 70 just for the upgrade?
    Trying to remember what she hauled

    Yeah it was, I just caught the tail end of it hubby was watching it. I dont know what she hauled, but I thought it was pretty cool. The upgrade meaning just the condo I believe is what is was. I also remember that she did not fit into the typical stereotype of women in the business that I have heard of and have read on here.:biggrin_25525:

    Most trucks like that haul cars in the nice shiny trailers. The reason why most are like that is cause they haul the cars to auto shows and have to stay in the truck all weekend.
    One good example is reliable
