    Have you tried it yet? Is it as good as you remember from when you were a kid?

    That's the important part.

    Yeah, its a wide cab for sure, much wider than say a W900 or T660 (first road truck i drove) but a bit more narrow than a Freight or Volvo.

    Consequently i have a liking for narrower, but its where i started. At leasy the 680 is still very feasable to have some spare drinks in the passenger seat and not move too much in grabbing one. Or whatever else you might want handy.

    That was my first observation in the volvo and freights "but my road desk" *reaches over* this aint no good, new plan!"

    Would it be possible if u have ur doubles endorsement to run say a flatbed up front and a reefer/van behind it ?? Or overlength laws come into play if they were say both 48ft long?? Could change the game for a small time owner op if that would be legal.

    I seen twin 48's (at least that's what I think they were) in upstate NY. Both vans but it was crazy looking. I had never seen anything but lil wiggle wagons before that.
