    I have slowly grown to love this Coronado. Now, with that said, I am irritated with the cup holders. They are just too shallow. Anyone have a DIY fix?

    I've seen an adapter cup holder that fits inside and makes it bigger.

    The trucks come with inverters already but they will install your. You will be charged for it.

    Now that I have said something about my cb the mic stops working. :biggrin_25516: The petro I am at doesn't fly age a cb shop so I guess I'll have to look at what they have in the store and use my points to get another one.

    Greetings everyone, I am finishing up orientation tomorrow and I am glad I came here. I hope to grow here and become and long standing member. Its going to be a challenge getting a Coronado after orientation. Seems like there is 4 of us and only 3 left. I already purchased my plastic storage containers as Efon showed me his truck and advised there were plenty of Coronados. Plus 3 of us are bigger guys so need the extra room. I really wish the other trucks had fridges too with a electric power outlet. Its having a APU, Fridge and better CPM some of the reason why coming to a new outfit and I already sold my inverter.

    The Pete's have a power outlet where you can plug in a fridge. You will just need to make sure you have the reefer link installed on the tuck so the APU doesn't run out of power when you are parked for the night.

    Well no cb shop where I stop at. So used my points and bought a new cb mic. Hopefully this one last a long time.

    Yep here waiting to finish up ... I do feel slightly dissapointed because of the truck situation.. I was told all the way up thru today I was getting a Coronado and then at the end of the day told oh we have to see ... I'm one of those bigger guys with platinum I rode in the Pete yesterday and It was a very tight fit .. Very closed in, and honestly I didnt come here to be put into an automatic ... I just have a slight dissapointed feeling I guess especially since I was told I was getting a Coronado once they saw how I fit in the Pete. Lol. Well that's my crying for the day. Thanks. Lol

    I wont drive a Pete with that narrow front. It is a pain in the ### to get in and out of the back and I usually hit my head on the low roof at least 4 times a day. It would be enough for me to go home. I had a company promise me a Volvo and it was there, and it was still there when I left in a 660.....never again.

    Yeah that's my problem way to narrow I hit my head three times yesterday going back n fourth from bunk to front not to mention I will have a rider .... I may have to make an executive decision tommorow . I kinda feel I was duped .. And I hate having that feeling, I really do ... So guess we will have to see what happens, it's a shame because it all sounds good, but it sounded better when I was told I was gonna get a truck I could fit in... I really feel like I was lured to the water hole and then told I can't fish. Lol
