    Also, would anyone happen to know what size sleeper would be best suited for my first truck?

    I agree to that statement of opinion! In case you are wondering why I said that in a weird way, its because you cant post anything under 10 characters in length.

    I did some research, and cascadia trucks cost too much, if you want a decent one. The cheapest one was 49,900. I need something in the range of 20,000 to 30,000, and that's where the Coronado comes in, beside the Argosy, which I've ruled out. Now it's between the Coronado and Columbia, and Century. Freightliner likes the letter C.

    basically what I'm asking now is which of the three are most reliable and are best suited for long hauls, since they all fit within the same price range.

    did a little research, and all 3 trucks are basically the same thing, they just look different. they look like brothers, in the fact that they look different yet the same. That says I should go for the Century.

    Nothing is better than a cab over to me. I am thinking of looking into buying a cab over. Been looking a older one and doing complete redo or new freightliner arg. Considering they only ones making new ones

    Passed an old school cabover on 75 the other day. Very tall with narrow windows. Love those things...not sure how they drive, but look bad ###
