    In the end, it comes down to whoever has to live in the truck.

    Would I ever buy anything other then a Kenworth or a Peterbilt? Never, I would not consider any other truck an option no matter the price, but that is what I am most comfortable in.

    If someone want's to go down the road in an old freightshaker, he's the one that has to do it. So long as it's safe and maintained, to each there own.

    Here is an older pic but i'd never pulled it off my phone. Buddy called and needed a little help. Was to pick up this load as he was closest but couldn't make it so asked me to assist. Picked up the truck and went to load a few blast pipes and some other thing that had to be covered. Of course the needing a tarp wasn't in our convo. lol

    Over strapped the crap out of the pipes and was good to go. First time with a set of trains, hope to get to give em a try again.

    Total was about 400KM and maybe an hour loading.

    it's a T800



    I added a few shiney things to my truck over the summer. Put on a drop visor, another stack, and side scoops. Do I win dirtiest truck award?

    I like when trucks have two stacks and the visor looks like it can be handy on sunny days. Are you going to paint it? Is it difficult or expensive to add the stack?

    Paint it? lol It actually has decent paint when it's clean, and the door is photoshopped.

    I meant are you going to paint the visor? It would look nice painted to match.

    Thanks. Would I like to have a Pete or KW? Of course! But I got this for a good deal and it has lowwww miles for the year, hell for most trucks its low. lol. Sure its not the most spacious or comfortable but it gets the job done safely and with no problems. Thats all that really matters in the end.

    I've made it decently comfortable now. But Im still young so it doesnt take much for that. lol.

    Also on a good side note, I had a fellow driver commend me on how easy I made parking look in this tight truck stop in Atlanta. Made me feel pretty good that he took the time to actually get out of his truck and walk over just to give me a compliment.
