MY REVISED WISH LIST. UPDATED 2/28:

[Jackrabbit379]

Yall are funny! :P

[Useless]

O/O is probably out of the question right now; i don't have a good place to park and i'm not real good with working on them. These two things go hand-in-hand.

But if i had those two things, then yes, i probably would go O/O in an instant.

That, combined with the fact that he does not have a pot to pi&& in, or a window to pour it out of!!
:P :P

[Mack2]

Ok, i'd like to thank everyone who PM'd me with suggestions; I'll definitely consider them.

After doing a little research, i think this company is up my alley:
http://www.smithtransport.com/

They got petes and, if you'll notice, they have the superwide tires on the drive positions. Superwides are smoother than duals don't you know?
So, maybe we should keep it simple; Companies like Smith Transport are the type of companies that i'm looking for.

Not what i refer to as "McDonalds" or "Wal-Mart" companies----i.e., Schneider, JB hunt, wiener. Although i'm not ruling them out completely.

You do know they have Freightliners with 70" condos don't you. :wink:

I think you also ought to think about the types of loads you're willing to carry.

Heavy loads really are a pain. It really breaks the rhythm to have to downshift and lean all the way up to turn on the 4 ways.

I recommend you only accept loads in the 20 - 25,000 pound range. Enough to speed up on the downhill without slowing you down uphill.

I think you're on to something here.

[Lewis friend]

Obviously i want the lighter loads. Another good reason for light loads is you won't have to waste any time scaling out. Which means no more dicking around with tandems and sliding the fifth wheel etc.

But i'm not too picky on weight.

[Random_Facts]

How did you guys miss this one?

[Rev.Vassago]

How did you guys miss this one?

You forget who we're talking about. Martians are par for the course. :wink:

[Lewis friend]

I meant Marten not martian; Spelling error. My bad.

[USMCTanker]

OMG, is this guy (Lewis Friend) a trip?!! How do you have time to run miles out the ***** when all you do is post your silly "wish list". Oh, I think you forgot to add:
"#325) Big truck must have "auto pilot" and not cruise control. Cruise control is for those who really care where they are going...I for one do not as long as I get miles out the *****....That way I don't have to ever leave my nice Big Truck or even drive it!!! Ha you all suck and are nobodies!!!! cuz I got Auto Pilot"

Good Lord, Col. Toon!!

Might as well demand a butler and a chauffer to go along with everything else.......As if this "Dream Company" would even hire you to begin with!!

I think that "Bandit's Cousin" summed it up best when he said that he owns the truck that you only dream about, but you'll never be able to drive.
:P
