    As far as I can tell, every company driver gets a long nose Pete, that's all they have. Depending on what's available, it'll either be a glider with a cat or a brand new truck with a Paccar. They do have a couple of Pete's with Cummins, so it'll really depend on what's available in the yard. I'm an O/O, so im only going by what I'v seen. They're all well maintained I can say that.

    Josh did? Then he knows something I don't. I know a couple of company guys and I asked 2 of them, both said the owner only buys long hoods.

    But their all still in 127" hoods. Honestly, josh would know better, but to answer your question, plan on getting a hood unless otherwise told.

    I only seen 1 579 I don't recall if it was Time DC or if it was 1 of there sister company first class services. But I thought the same thing that they only buy long nose. Look at Altom transport. They had nothing but long nose they just recently moved to a lot of 579 models now. I know it's 2 different owners but jisj throwing it out there. That Altom was known for they long noise and stylish trucks.

    There is an O/O at Time that has a really sharp one, you might of seen that one. As long as Willie owns Time, i'd bet it'll stay hoods only. He gives the O/O a little ribbing about when he's going to buy a real Pete. o_O
