Where is everyone #5

Great to see you sir. That doggy has gotton very big since the last time i saw his picture. Hopefully he bring you and the missus some level of safety and good will

 

I’ve always wanted the big flat top sleepers, what are they 63”? But then I realize my stand up 379 Pete looks like an episode of hoarders after just 2 days. I even removed the seat but it doesn’t help. Every time you hit your head just think how cool your truck looks though.

 

I for one do not have a KYU number and don't plan on it. I mailed my 40 cents to Indiana however.

 

There's one in Joplin 44 & Iowa 80 on the showroom floor. $3800 I believe.?

When I say I was fed up, I literally was. Almost bought that one with the single roll up door, but thought the same as you. That ice & road grime would eventually jamb up the door, so I saved the $1k & bought my 18" deep 3 door off the showroom floor @ Iowa 80 & mounted it right there in the parking lot.. lol

Keen eyes might recognize that long white binder in the background..?
Tug helped me muscle it up on the rails. 300lbs is a tad heavy for one guy..

 

I can get some tomorrow.

Yea, I called them and they refused to sell me the one off the floor. I would've been much happier to just drive 4 hours to Walcott instead of all the way to Joplin. Got a better price through 4 state anyways.

 

Prices not including tax… there’s a 20” one at Iowa 80 for $4100 with $950 shipping and a 14” one at Joplin for $4100 with $250 shipping. I’d buy it if someone wants a partial load from Walcott to San Antonio (serious).

 

The old cabovers were so small that you couldn’t sit up straight in the sleeper. Add in the engine between the seats and you had a really difficult time finding a spot to put your shoes on.

The first time I got DOT’d, the diesel bear was standing at the door looking inside the COE watching me as I hurried to draw some lines. I look up realizing I was being watched…

“You done wit dat, boy?”(in a thick Mississippi accent)

GULP!

 

Thank you. He was 51 lbs at 7 months old...


I swear he'd eat everything in sight if we'd let him.

Did you run off and get a new truck or something? Man I can't leave you kids alone for a minute.

 

It took some convincing, but in the end the cash did more persuading than I could of.. lol

Glad to hear you've no issues with the roll up door.. I really wanted that style for the exact reason of ducking & dodging doors swinging in the wind..

The thing I dislike most of my box is how the top corners are squared off. Doesn't look nice with the profile of the bunk. One of these days I might try & have them rounded, or at least cut down to 45°.. Think it might look a little cleaner like that.??

 

I dunno… the Merritt ones are rounded corners and are ugly as can be.

I also want the roll door because currently my air lines are held up by the top corner of my headache rack with a spring. I like the pig tail or whatever it’s called a lot better but it would get in the way of the doors.

I also need the fenders… but $350 shipping is nuts. Can get a truckload for that now a days lol.
