    No combo is aluminum floor steel frame.

    Conestoga is a tarping system. I see you said you'd be hauling lumber and that is what this trailer has been used for it's entire life so it's perfect. Tarp you load and never get dirty.

    Not the trailer but same idea, never hand tarp anything!

    Truck ran like a bad mutha^)*#!.....thin is tite no rattles no leaks......i take back my comment
    about the dumpy passenger seat, its by far way more comfortable than the grey drivers seat so i
    figure im guna be switching them around......has a few small issues that the guy is going to fix
    if i give him the green lite....he is going to put me 2 new steer tires on it already has 8 new drives,
    somebody jacked the cd player when they traded it so they guna put me a new 1 in and the bass turd
    took the spotlites off of it he guna put me 2 new spotlites on it he took the cupholder bottoms i figure
    they was chrome and he kept em.......

    On the trailer he said they would paint the frame to match the trucks color put new reflective
    tape all around it and 8 alluminum rims on trailer and polish the 4 outsiders.....havent tried jewin
    em on the price yet....he told me to come back and get the truck and trailer n take it home if i wanted and go over
    with a fine tooth comb, I told him i wanted my dad to approve it before i bought it he is my wealth of trucking
    info he's backed up more miles than ive drove forward......so i figure monday or tuesday me n dad guna
    go over there and get it and take it on a good long test drive with the board behind us to see how it goes......

    truck ran good had lots of power...they advertise it as 475HP but said they plugged computer to it to check ecm and it
    showed 522HP....engine has new turbo on it....im almost embarrassed to tell this part the horns were never put
    on the cab but i pulled the string they blew and loud not train horn loud but louder than regular air horns, well i crawled
    all under nieth the truck looking for horns and discovered that it was pretty clean on the underside
    and also discovered that the truck has horns but i have the slitest fn clue as to where they are....i looked under
    hood under sleeper on the back of battery boxes in the the battery boxes in the storage space under the bed
    and i still duno where they are......dude did some studying when he placed the horns whereever he put em.......
