    Just got a call from my FM wanting me to swap this one out to a 2012, seems they have a surplus in Springfield, 30 extra. Told him I would come in and look but if they were smaller than my current truck I was keeping it, my current truck that is. He agree'd LOL, surprised me.

    Hmm Pay raise of .02cpm

    How do you like the company. Do you get good miles, and home okay?

    Running company is good, While I do have to drive a light wt truck, I dont have to worry about the hassles of leasing and I make ok money. I average around 2500 miles per week when I am not at home. I go home every 3-4 weeks, which is a pain in the neck for my FM as getting loads for me to Reno, NV is a pain, but he does a good job. Whats funny is while he doesn't complain about getting me home, he drops hints that I shouldn't live out in the boonies. I just laugh and tell him he is the one that wants me to go home every 3 weeks, so suck it up.
    Hope this helps you

    Don't know for sure, but the ones I have seen have a different setup for the cabinets, I have a place to put my TV, much like the full sized trucks. The 2012's I have seen on the road seem to be all different lol, Internationals are setup different than the freightliners, same with the Pete's. Once I get to Springfield I will know more.
    Have also seen some with only bunk curtains where as mine has cab curtains also.
