    Do they offer the 86 inch Studio Version of the T680? Or T660?

    For the trucks they regularly spec and stock - no. If you go to SFI's website you can see the spec sheets for the trucks they order (Cascadia EVO, Pete 579, KW T680)

    If you went in with experience, a big chunk of cash for a down payment, and good credit, you could probably order whatever you wanted. But if you are in that kind of position I would go straight to the bank or dealer anyway.

    Nope. The only time I have heard of a contractor training someone is when someone wanted to train their spouse. They still had to go through the whole training program.

    I have a feeling it's for good reason too, otherwise we'd have a bunch of IC's over here saying they are training new drivers when in reality they're just trying to pad their paycheck with that extra driver in the truck.

    If you get a truck through Schneider finance and go on choice... how much money should be saved up before hand in case of a SHTF scenario?
    I'm leaning to jumping on being an LTL linehaul driver and rake in the cash for a year before considering buying an older truck or leasing a newer one.
    But that's another year of being a bored zombie company driver.

    How much money is a saved is a safe bet before jumping into choice?

    I think 5 to 10 grand. We just talked about that in my thread. It really depends on your situation at home
