    Ya really wanna make a difference?

    Get out of the office and somehow make a business arrangement with a trucker to be on the road as an engineering observer for at least 90 days; said trucker will, however, need some measure of monetary compensation for this, thats just proper.

    I get sick of all the truck issues that are obviously because a paper drawing person never looked at the functionality of a component on a vehicle.

    Prime example ..... F-650 Super Duty with a long frame, ie;rollback - all that truck, yet, installed on the doors are the same blasted little assed mirrors that come on an F-150.

    What the hell!

    That's my 81¢ (inflation killed 2¢)

    It’s funny that Peterbilt had X amount of drivers help design their new Ultraloft sleeper

    I owned 2 of them and it didn’t take me 2 nights in the truck to see how much better it really could have been

    Maybe it’s a cost thing or maybe most drivers are slobs but I personally like a clean truck and a shower
    I’ve posted before but the bed should come down from the ceiling like some of these 5th wheel campers with dual purpose garage/bedroom
    You’d have seating. Shower and stool
    Drop the bed and those items like the shower walls could collapse inside each other if that makes sense?

    I now have a big bunk and will never go back

    Less plastic or made so it’s secured a lot more solid. Find a way to make to 579 POS not the most vibrating buzzing thing in history.

    I prefer my cabin in the mountains, overlooking a nice lake.

    I'd be happy with a '60-something Binder with a 220 and a 10 speed, if I had that last item and could use it!

    Sorry.
    I forgot to add the Ammo to the list.
    And it's not cheap either.
