    They are lighter so they can carry more weight.

    Yeah. I had it all typed up then zoned out for a few minutes. I came to and hit submit. I hate it when that happens. I post some odd sounding posts sometimes when I forget to hit the quote button too.

    My uncle had a kick ### cabover when I was a kid. Those things were cool... but a pain when you had to tip that cab to get under it!!! don't forget to strap your TV down, or it's going through your windshield!!

    That must be that new rig that is PATT approved....When you get within your HOS limit....It starts flashing orange and red lights.....Then an annoying computer voice screams "PARK ME NOW!!!!!" Repeatedly until you park it for the night.......:biggrin_2554:
