Me too, plus aren't there places where it would be more advantageous to have a mid roof vs a condo?

 

US Steel in Gary, for one. The way around the back is a pain. Much rather have a lower roof and go in under the short bridge.

 

Short bridge = 12'7 corect? I went under, I think our trucks are just over 12'... maybe I should check that!

 

I wonder if the Volvo's they got are mid roof's or condo's? I know that if I get hired on there, going to be in a T660, just curious.

Is the cb already installed in the truck or do you have to buy one?

 

I start training next week. I hope they don't give me a I shift truck once I done with training. I think that cheating when it comes to trucking but that's just me.

 

Every truck ive seen is midroof. Cascafia, volvo and 660's.

Buy your own CB. Truck has all wiring installed.

 

The 680 is the only condo I've seen. All 660 trucks are mid roofs. They never made a condo one. Most just have the fairing for pulling a van to reduce drag.

It could be worse though, we could have the low roof 660 without the windows on top. I've been in one of them at it's about 6" shorter than outs.

 

Just look at this short sleeper.

 

My Freightliner is 11'6".

 

My friends cascadia here measures at 11'8". Hmm that's weird but my kW measure 4" lower than some of the others. Odd!!
