What is a 'Narrow, lightweight, one seat truck"?

If i got a response from a recruiter like that, I would have to run like crazy!! Heck knows what you will really get if that is their most positive spin they could come up with.

 

What is this industry turning into?? Prime issues mini trucks with one seat, Conway Truck load issues trucks with a twin screw and one dead axel......hell it will not be long and will all be driving Freightliner FL-60's!!

One seat? Where is the lot lizard supposed to sit?

 

On your lap...................duh.

 

Have not got a good look at conways tag axles . But done right it will get far better fuel numbers, locker and a lift or a second dump valve to unload the tag and load the single drive, it would have better traction . My families trucks had a similiar setup .(ex fuel numbers ,10+) 25 years ago ! We pulled a bunch of design tricks. Were job built, but today those numbers are unheard of .People would laugh at the specs and no trade valve , but when we were done was not much left. 1000 miles a day 365 for 7 1/2 years.Daycabs ! Got to love long det runs ! Switch drivers at bunk house .

 

MVT uses tag axles too.

 

Burn that lap afterwards.......actually if you're messing with a lizard you will already be burning in that general vicinity.

 

Those are not "lightweights". almost

Someone has some pictures buried in here somewhere...
