    Awesome. Pretty much all the same except the colors and how many miles are on them and how long the lease term is. I was told they are only leasing 2009-2010 T660's as of about a month ago but I heard 2 people in this weeks class is getting T600's so who knows? If you need anything give me a call.

    Kimberly told me she had several 07's this week, which I assume are T600's with Cat ACERTs. And that this is the week everyone wants newer ones. Tiredoldman, I may be right behind you.

    I really hope I dont get an 07 with high milage unless it's a w900, I drive a T600 now an 04 and the 07's arent much different but the gadges.... the only plus side to this is the term would be much shorter... maybe 18 months vs. 48, also was kinda hoping for newer I really hope they have newer this friday to put my name on.

    The other advantage to the 07's to 09's is no need to spend an addtional 14 bucks on Def....
    And yes azcardnlz they could be T600 but I hope not the T660 launched in 06 but by 07 had a different nose design and headlights, I would assume they are t660 and apparently are available with the cummings isx motors, according to the research I just did lol

    Now how long did you work there? Not a day. You were set up for orientation and never showed up because you supposedly missed the bus. Then you sent me a text message asking me if you could borrow money to rent a car which I wasn't going to do. Then you called and asked Marsha if you came to work there if they would pay you more than everybody else and she said no and you were no longer approved after that. I know the whole story. Don't come on here acting like you worked for them because you never did.

    I don't know who u think ur talkin to I didn't ask for anything and did u not read the next message hey man sorry wrong person that text went to. Hmmm I didn't ask for extra money I had 2 other companies lookin at me and marsha said we will give u extra 500 sign on bonus. I'm more qualified then most drivers and they wanted me. No accidents no ticjets only 2 jobs I've stayed with both for over 2 yrs but they went out of business. So before u run ur chops get the facts

    That's not what she told me and I think I will believe her. After all you just posted a few posts here saying you worked here and you never did.
