Dave is right on the money. I talked to Heath Wood from Middle Georgia Freightliner at the Expo about stretching and he said it would run about $5200. It could be done cheaper but I would want it done by someone who knows what they are doing. Mike

Gee, might the hot dog muncher be the same guy i ran into at the Expo? After giving a good and infomative seminar on spec'ing a truck and answering several questions from the group he asked us to stop by the booth with more questions. So I did only to find him much less informative. I did get 2...

>Large sleeper is much cheaper than a divorce. Pennies on the >dollar!:) AHMEN! that's why I'm still looking and listining to all you folks. I saw your truck at the Expo Dave. Very nice! Do you and your wife like that bunk as much as I think you probably do? What changes would you make? Mike
