On other thing about a Paccar motor, Kenworth will only put a Paccar motor in a W900B (short hood) not a W900L (long hood).

Hey Sam, Bob and Ed, can you posts a pic of your rigs?

Just saw the pics of your coach, looks great. What are the specs? engine,trans,weight etc.

Hi Hot Rod, you are exactly right. I am not arguing against auto's. I just have driven them all an prefer manuals. If I am going to spend all this money I need to be happy driving it. Which is why I want to drive a W900. Remember, "You can take the nut out of the truck... But you can't take the...

Wow! Thats beautiful. You have the nice Freighliner, Coronado with exposed fuel tanks. Good work. Thanks for sharing.

No, just don't like auto and auto shift trannies. I like to drive on the low side of the rpm range and I like shifting! Can you send me a pic of your coach? Is there anything you would get or change if you had the chance. I want to learn from all you guys who blazed a path befor me.

Hi Ed,I am looking to see what I like better, I here good and bad about RFP and aluminum. I would like to here your opinion on both someday.

Hi Bob, I have talked with Eldorado. I am waiting until their Showhauler gets back, it was at a show in Tampa. Then I will look at both S/H and Ren. I'm sure I will like it, I have been driving heavy wrecker and tractor trailer as a hobby for 25 years. Yes I am a truck nut.

Thanks Petrel, Renegade is one of the coaches I have been looking at.

Hi Ed, my phone didn't show your location but I see it on my laptop.

Thanks for the welcome Sam.

Hi Ed, where are you at?

Hello truck conversion community. I am planning on buying a truck conversion sometime after my vacation property sells. I will be reading all of your veteran advice on ideas, wants and needs. What I've read so far has been interesting and helpful. Thanks Speeno
