    I believe there is flexibility with regards to students teaming, all dependent on the region of the country the student resides.

    Finally I've been re-seated into a a 2 bunk tractor. 2013 Prostar, which I have to pick up in Olive Branch, MS.



    I have a question: Does the under bunk utility/ storage box pass through from one side of the truck to the other???

    I'm going out in a rental car to pick up the truck. I usually store my load locks under the bunk.



    Help me out folks. I have to leave in the morning.

    There is a narrow opening back there, about 12 inches or so. They mount the Drivertech computer on the floor in the middle of that opening so not sure load locks on top are a good idea. A lot of the ProStars have load lock racks. Maybe you could call Olive Branch and ask someone to check for you.

    We have a ProStar, it does go thru but the drivertech box is in the middle.

    I keep my load bars on the rack by the cat walk. It holds 4.
     
    Wedge Thanks this.

    Called the shop at Olive Branch. No racks for the load locks on this truck.


    So, I'll handle that when I come back to pick up my student.


    Thanks for the help.
