Keith -

From what I here from people who could benefit from a MDT or a Class 8 for that matter is size. Many people just can't or do not want to deal with the size of these vehicles and having to park and maneuver them.

As Larry has mentioned he uses his class 8 truck as a daily driver. I also have been driving my Class 8 quite abit and just love it.

So if size is not a issue, go for it. The next issue is to make sure you size your vehicle to handle the load your going to tow. If you are going to be towing a 40' triple slide fifth wheel that FL50 is going to be a real dog. $27,000 could buy you one hell of a Big Truck.

1995 FL FLD120, M11, custom interior.
