    Fitzgerald also makes peterbilt glider kits. They only offer Detroit series 60 pre-egr engines though. I'm sure Pittsburgh power offers cats and cummins also

    I have seen a Fritzbuilt, that thing was shiny as a reefers new hiny. All those chicken lights are really cool. He was dragging one of those new port cans that dump like a coal bucket. Rear unloading a trailer full of ping pong balls at Dirty Dicks sporting goods.

    What are you hauling? How much are you being paid? What exactly are all of your costs?

    We get the feeling you may not know what you're jumping into if you're asking what type of truck to buy.

    I've always been partial to the conventional cabovers myself. Though a lot of people do seem to like the Peternorths. Not really my thing, but to each their own, I say.
