Why do you say there's no difference in your opinion ? Also, thanks for the insight as well. I kept hearing about weight this and weight that. I looked up some weights of some of this trucks out of curiosity and some of them were lower than a standard truck. As you said, it all depends on the setup and equipment on board. Price wise, I've seen some older ones about the same or less money than your average conventional. For the money and convience ( to me anyway) it seemed like a older large sleeper made more sense (in most cases,but I'm on the outside looking in). That's why I figured I would ask the guys who actually own/run them. "Heaviest load I ever hauled on this trailer was 42,000 and I swore I'd never haul another heavy one like that again, felt weird." That's what she said........ Nice looking truck man and thanks for being so helpful. Afterall, I can't be the only person who see's these trucks with those questions. I think I'd like to get into step deck/ flat bed hauling with some RGN experience eventually. You know, in the wrong context,that might sound kinda creepy....hahhahahahaaha
