What is COOL about a Extended Frame ?

"What larger size sleeper could you fit on your wheelbase and still have swing room?"

I know some guys that have 132s on a 300" wb. and could maybe go longer. I need to point out, my step has an 8' neck with an 18" kp and my 5th wheel is right over the rear drive, hence the space.

 

Looks are totally useless if you can not dock your load where it needs to go.
In a lot of areas a trailer dock was only intended for a 40 or 48 foot container/trailer, but now a days most all places are using 53 foot or bigger container/trailer.
Threading the needle and jackknifing are a very common practice in the older parts of any city.
I would love to have a hugh sleeper with lots of room, but the realization of the sad truth I ain't getting paid if if I can not dock the container/trailer.

 

I agree with you, some of us just love truckin,don't look at it as just a job. Money is not everything. #### sure can't take it with you!. If you have a decent amount saved property business ect. Someone's going to be paying death tax, ect on it. Government is **** sure going to get all they can.

 

Long WB takes longer to jacknife, so safety is better.
