You mean like what if there's like 6 inches of packed snow and ice on the 6% grade in the middle of the night?

Maybe you're misinterpreting the message. Perhaps the message is, "Get your big, stinky arse out of my bunk."
Maybe sleeping upstairs would fix it.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
This is what I'm talking about. This is the one with the 275" WB.
-
Nice, but those have to go for at least $250k new. Plus imagine backing in tight spots. I would love one though.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this.
-
I think I could deal with backing. I'm 242 now, this one is 275.
I dunno, I think 250K might be high. Figure brand new truck maybe 160K. I'll say more in the 200K neighborhood at best.
And some of the new Cascadia's have fallen to mid 140K's. -
My house costs way less than that truck.
A person could get a local job and be home every day and live in a nice house instead of having to stay on the road to pay for that truck, plus you know the type of people driving a truck with a sink in it will always dump their sewage right into the parking lot as they think they’re high class and better than everyone.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
That never really crossed my mind until you mentioned it. You mean like dump it any old place when traveling through California or Indiana?
-
Have you ever hung out in a bar in California and talked to the locals ?
They’re all good people.
Plus so is Indiana, and we have great music. -
Those big ones have a tank that pulls out and you dump it the same place RV's use. The only sewage I've seen in parking lots has been wrapped up in a plastic bag and dumped on the ground. It's really nice when a truck runs over the bag and leaves a trail out of the lot. I think most of the drivers who can afford those have a bit more class than your average slob driver.dwells40 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.
