    Hino Vs Freightliner

    I dont know if it just me. I know i havent seen too many sleepers. But having a shower in an 84" (if thats what it is) is kinda small and cramped. Now i could be wrong as i havent seen it in person. But if you seen it then i'm sure its not an issue with you.

Atleast panther set something up. For me the hometime has been 50/50 with the 2 times landing me withing 5 miles of my house and...
