HF Rig choices (Ham) / Freymiller Ham Truckers?

I am heading back out OTR again. I don't have anything very mobile right now so I am kicking around getting another radio in the near future. Until then I will most likely use my TS-570 in some way. I know there are a few obvious choices like the IC-7000. The receiver may be best in class for compact radios but I am wondering if there just might be other options that are cheaper or even more rugged. Seems the better receiver may be negated anyways due to the higher noise of running it in a big truck. I would like to hear from other drivers that maybe used or are using other radios such as the Alinco DX-SR8, Icom-7200, or FT-450 in a big truck and how they like it. Some radios just can't handle the noisy environment. How are these (or other ideas)? The Alinco right now is $520. That is a lot of bang for the buck! I would plan on using my Tarheel II and its not intended to be my primary shack. That is at home, so it does not have to be the cats meow. I would use it for Domestic Nets, Conversation with other drivers, and maybe County Hunters/WAS nets. Also would enjoy PSK31 in the cab during breaks.

Also, looking to know if there are any Ham Truckers that are running for Freymiller? Am I the only one when I get going?
