    In the last year or so, I seen a trend with more of the old hoods back on the road. It’s nice to see the professional trucker lifestyle back on the road. There’s even a few carriers out there that only run hoods. You won’t find them on a website though.

    I like er real tight especially on a Dark rainy night, no backup lights and lots of guard rails close by. Then a dockhand tells ya Your Good Man. Worth it all then.
    You Pro's driving them stretched out Rig's know what I mean.

    In the ten years I've been with this company, we've had I think 3 Freightliner Century's. Two had sleepers, the other was a daycab. And ya know what? They did the same job as all the other, nicer trucks. They were just ugly. And nobody really wanted to run them. The daycab was really handy to have as a shop truck though.

    I am curious to know that place as well. To me, it can be a pain in the butt if a load is rejected, especially if it costs you a high paying load. But, I will get paid for the load, detention and any reroute, and miles.
     
    D.Tibbitt Thanks this.

    Its air ride. In the picture it's most likely at its lowest setting. Cruising down the road it rides higher
