    Hello,

    I hope you could help me to choose a right long haul trailer truck.

    I’ll only use it to tow 53’ or 48’ dry van or reefer trailer from Vancouver, BCto South U.S.A, then go to Toronto or Montreal and go back Vancouver.

    It must be automatic transmission which will be easier for new driver.

    I hope you can recommond the most reliable of engine with automatic transmission
    works for me, I’ll find more info about these models from Internet.

    Thanks!
