    The short nosed trucks are not designed and do not have the stability/integrity to handle sustained speeds above 65 miles per hour.

    :biggrin_2555: Dang, I didn't know that. It's a wonder every cabover didn't flip over in the middle of the road.

    Where did you get this info from? The ones that were driving with me must of had some heavy suspension modifications done cause they had no issues at 75+mph. Lol.

    Hope you joking when you stated what you said.

    Typical attitude from someone who drives a long nose... The long nose does not have the design and aerodynamics to push the wind in Wyoming and other windy states. That's why they "TRY" to draft our more aerodynamic trucks in the windy states.

    Your claim is BS... They were "designed" for fuel efficiency. I'm going to just go ahead and think you were just being sarcastic...
