    I like the amount of storage in my cascadia...it has more than my columbia and the fact that the cabinets have doors instead of nets is nice too...I don't know about the prostars..or the volvos...but i think the Freightliners have the most storage in the fleet...

    My volvo was pretty tight if i remember. Only had it for a month or less so i didnt have all my gear in it... i sure like the way it drove tho. I'm a 6'2" 300 Pounder and it was just roomy while driving.

    So I get to a customer last night, no one was there, then I locked my keys in my truck again. I ended up busting the butterfly window on my driver door. I tried using a screwdriver to hit the latch for it but shattered the window. So yeah, I got my keys though!

    I really need a second set. I only have one key.

    I locked my keys in once, I now have a second in my other pocket and one hidden.

    Go and get a set made for yourself. Zip tie it somewhere.

    Driver showed me how to get in with visegrips and nothing broken.

    Only thing that sucks is we tried that. Something's worn out on it and it don't turn.
