    I would'nt think so.If your company issues you a small trk,all you have to do is tell them and they'll find you another trk.

    The only ones I've felt cramped in would be the coffin sleepers KW offers on there trucks. I'm not sure of the size but there pretty narrow. I've delivered some of them that where going to Halliburton. Kinda felt like the size of a extended cab pick up.

    I'm 5'9" and 150lbs. I'm too small for my Peterbilt. Tall drivers would love it.
