    Long term effects. The day cab is nice, but the wheel base is so short you won't have a back after a few years. They ride better, but longer is better. Air ride is better. Spring will beat you to death. Just my 2 cents.

    Okay I am going to ignore the last comment do to nothing nice to say.

    Info about me....
    28 years old. Worked as a equipment operator since I was 15. Had falling out with boss. While there I hauled my equipment where it needed to be. Probay averaged 1000 miles a week. Now I work for prime trucking. I like it here but I want more. Tha is y I am looking into o/o. I have only drove a 93 WS, Peterbilt dump truck, and a few models of international.

    Now....I ask again what r some good mechanical trucks that are out there with good mpg? And good companies to lease with?
