Can anyone with a T680 tell me what size the bed is? Just curious if it's a full or twin. Thanks in advance.

Schneider should introduce sound effects into the load board.
Here's one for when you book a load that another driver beat you to it

Thanks for the info on the bed size. Bed looks bigger in the pictures lol. Want to make sure the sheets I had in my old truck will fit the new one.

Not to keep a controversial issue going, but the old vs. new truck, payment vs. no payment thing has been going on forever and forever will.
Look. there is no right answer. Both have there merits and costs. If you have a truck with no payments, either you laid out a lot of cash or once had to make payments. Owning a truck has its costs either way. One thing many drivers don't realize is, there is always a replacement cost accruing down the road. You cant evaluate a business on monthly cash flow alone. You need to look at you balance sheet as well, I'll bet many drivers don't even know what a balance sheet is.
Depending on the business plan, it might make more sense to go one way vs. the other. The possibilities are endless.
Just one example:
1. Healthy, energetic O/O signing a high paying contract with a customer where reliability is critical, might opt for a new truck.
2. A semi retired driver with good knowledge of making his own repairs and might want to take a lot of time off would likely go for a lower cost older truck.
The key is to make the right choice for your situation.
Anyone without payments already paid the piper and may be paying in downtime and missed opportunity.
And don't forget that truck will have to be replaced some day.
There's no magic here.freightwipper and 48Packard Thank this. -
