    Anyone get an up close view of our T700's yet? Just have seen the pics and such. Just wondering if I made a bad choice changing trucks early?

    I am not real fond of the super singles but looks nice. Here's a pic for those that might not be apart of the Millis blog so they can see one.

    I think you made a VERY good decision!

    Super Singles SUCK! I Have them, the T700 has no visor, and that one appears to have small fuel tanks as well.

    All of our trucks have dual 100's :( beer loads pushing 47&48k. Im sure thats why they went with singles as well if it were fuel mileage they woundnt skimp on the fairings. Disappointed in one side box. Is that option really that expensive. What a pain it'll be lugging tool boxes in and out of sleeper. I think baritone made a wise choice.

    I understand that, but it's going to screw you guys when your getting stuck on wet spots on flat concrete and they get more money for hauling a little extra weight.....YOU DONT.


    Its all about makeing them more money, and screwing you in process (im not saying millis is a bad company, i'm just saying on this truck this is the case)

    Not sure about the camper part - but did also notice there is only one side box. Would be interested to see if it goes all the way through.

    I think the SS are due to this being heavier than the others and thus allowing for more weight. (just guessing)

    I just wonder if the guy who put the numbers are these was far sighted? I mean #### could they be any bigger!

    Also - what is that Millis sticker on the side of the sleeper? I cant make it out when I enlarge the pic???? Anybody????

    Yea I understand that - but my T660's visor doesnt extend below the windshield so it really doesnt do much. Maybe it does and I just dont know it LOL.

    Utah - dang I was way off. Let me know when you get more east LOL!
