Neither the only Freightshaker I'd ever drive is a Classic XL and the only Volvo 770 or 780

I'm currently driving a 2004 Freightshaker Century for Werner and hate the truck but have also had the chance to drive a Classic XL which I relay like for some reason not sure why but I just do and as for the Volvo I don't like the sleepers on the 760 or 660.

None of the above. Guess I'm spoiled Kenworth, what I learned on and what I drive when called upon.

I was going to respond by saying "a big one". It is a KW W900, metallic black (that was an issue), had to have a Catepillar (that was another issue) we agreed upon the sleeper (big), at one time I could could give you the nitty gritty details but that was 20 years ago when we were very proud of our accomplishment. We still are 20 years of no accidents, dents, scrapes, or other abuses.

The memory is failing me I can only remember what we fought over when we bought it. I went in 50/50 with my best friend (he still is but now I only own 10%) but that is a different story.
