    I'm still figuring out the specs part at moment. For now, I'm looking at something used but decent power and middle of the road functionality. This was I dont corner myself with any-one capability.

    I've noticed that too, it would appear that older sleeper cabs are way cheaper in most cases. Especially cab-over one's since they're that less desirable.

    Is this so the sleeper saves you some money when you have to stay the night?

    Daycab is the only way to go. I think I've only ever been in a truck with a sleeper maybe twice in my life.

    Day cab=no sleeper.

    I like it because of hair pin turns on very old mountain roads...

    The one I got promoted to this spring is an F550 4x4. I do miss the old Topkick GMC I had a few years ago though.
