    You cannot tear up those old boxes. Trust me. There are 70 year old boxes out there that have never been apart.

    I'm not sure how badly I want to drive a two sticker either. That and I'm used to E model power and I don't think they'd put up with one of those.

    Without a decent mark up why would a truck stop supply enough charging stations for the industry?? I suppose they could all go to paid parking with time limits . Not many people spend much money inside to justify the expense by the looks of it..

    I was tossed out on my ear for saying the W990, will replace the W900 some years back.

    Its not new news for anyone paying attention.

    I'm not the biggest fan of "new" trucks, but the W990 is pretty sick. Here's the trailer to a documentary about them:

    Whatever they're called, those things are a joke, a freaking fake exhaust stack? I thought the fake breather cans of the 990, Coronado, Lone Star, etc. were bad, but a fake stack is the trucking equivalent to stuffing a sock in your shorts!
