Everyone ready for this?
 

I'll take one for free trial...

I don't like the center seat idea. It probably has a lousy cup holder too. :)
…no fresh air vents for the sleeper?

They will spend trillions to find a way to get 12.5 mpg by gum.

funny, I was just going to post about this. what do you guys think the future will bring? I'd like to get a glider soon and avoid the emissions but how long can we duck that? I mean, they do get better fuel milage after all so how long do we realyhave in the old trucks?

I figure by 2020, it will be truly a wise business move to get a newer truck to stay competitive. Fuel mileage as it is needs to be bettered by 2+ mpg to justify the cost for me. Otherwise the new payment etc to get a new truck, increased insurance etc make it financially a break even point.

My current truck fits the need and a new engine will easily push me to the point it will be required.

The bigger issue is the automated vehicles. Talk about putting a few million people out of work, truck drivers would be toast. The drone usage is already the start with Amazon attempting to do deliveries themselves.

I was discussing with a friend, in 10-15 automated vehicles will be all over the place, in 20-25 you will not be able to find a vehicle that isn't self drive. By then, fuel mileage will be moot, they will probably all be fully electric.

Looks like it's almost ready to go. All they need to do is paint the clown face on the front and the name of the circus on the trailer.
