What is the big back seat for when no passengers are allowed? I was expecting a kitchenette and bath.

No Jacuzzi, but it certainly has the room.

I can have all the passengers that I want, it's my truck. The sofa set-up is actually meant for down time. It has a pull out hardwood table, set-up for a big screen TV with surround sound, the works.

I thought the feds regulated passengers out for everyone.

Not that I have ever heard of. My insurance requires them to be at least 16 years of age, but other than that, no restrictions. I take my wife out with me when she has the time off.

You have to have room to sprawl out..

Bearman- don’t some of the engine labels specify a max & cruise HP rating? Seem to remember(?), besides getting in computer power ratings.

I never realized there was a difference in HP between the pedal and CC.

Greetings Ironbuilt! You have a sweet tractor! 23 years ago I worked for Goodyear selling medium commercial truck tires & retreading to fleets large & small. I had 3 Penske shops as customers. Penske had the electronic Detroit Series 60 Turbos in their rentals. I remember a customer of Penske that asked for CC settings of 450 hp @ 65 mph maximum speed and a setting of 400 hp on the pedal. It encouraged their hired operators to run at the slower speed. My Penske guy said the CC/pedal hp & speed could be dialed up higher but I don't remember what was the highest hp number that could have been set.

I actually have mufflers as part of the DEF emissions system. It is a little noisy due to the straight pipes off of the muffler, but nothing obnoxious.

“Rednecks” don’t know obnoxious; lol...

Most of the big rigs around here sound like they have straights.

I'm not a redneck. I was born and raised in NJ, so technically, I am a Yankee.

I 'used' to be a Yankee but converted 56 years ago

The Yankee comes to the south for a visit and quickly leaves. The Damn Yankee comes for a visit and never leaves.
