Even if they just produce single axle or day cab tractors with the new chassis, technology and the F750 or 850 cabs they'll dominate the freight trucking sales market

    I know I'm an old fart, I drove a LTL9000 day cab, beautiful truck. I just delivered it to our office in Alabama, I ran out of Arkansas. The young guy that got the truck said, it's a nice truck but doesn't pull very good. (300cummims) I said, I know wait till it's out of warranty then turn some fuel to it. I quit long before that happened though. That was back in 1986. Still a beautiful truck today

    It was an okay truck. I had a 1996 Ford LTL9000 double-frame daycab with Cummins N14-460 / Eaton Fuller 13-speed, 20,000-lbs steer with two gearboxes, 20,000-lbs lift tag, and 46,000-lbs Newway Airride tandem. That was one tough truck that could move mountains. My kneecaps on the other hand took a beating on that lower dash surround.
