    Well... all the solar powered truckers are racing into the lot now that the sun has truly set.

    Guess I’ll be sitting up front watching until I’m in the clear.

    For those of you whom like to watch westerns. Here is a channel on youtube for you.
    Western Movies & Films

    As for me, I bookmarked Daniel Boone to watch tomorrow. Otherwise good night. One of my OM's has declared mine the best bed in the house. Probably because of the electric blanket. So until tomorrow,

    They don't look too bad.

    However the positioning of that trolley is HORRIBLE.

    I'll have a shop relocate that thing to the steering column with a older style after market install. You need to have everything right there at hand instead of bending across half the cab when your trailer is hanging down 60 feet below you tractor.

    The rest of the interior looks like it has possibilities. Maybe a little cubby above the cab seats in the roof? Bet the cats would love to get up there.

    The sleeper seems bare. There should be a ginormous box under the entire lower bunk and there needs to be a flip down upper bunk. What you got going on back there looks like a foam factory exploded trying to fabricate that...

    One last quibble, two actually. There is no clam shell ash tray. The old fashioned trucking kind that can hold three or four packs of stubs without catching fire. The second would be those coffee holders are too small and badly placed. Three the dash looks too much like a old Century series. I would do well just to have a better dash with more gauges and everything. I cannot get everything I want so...

    Now that’s worth some consideration.
    Do like a good Collins. Use good vodka.

    Knob Creek is good, Bulleit is also quite good.
    Four Roses is really good. Try the small batch.
