    Room for sleepers behind 915 series trucks?

    Ah well, maybe that will just make sure you guys show up at the next mini-rally!

    Room for sleepers behind 915 series trucks?

    Hmm, tempting. Wonder what our fuel bills would be to meet in the middle of the country?

    Room for sleepers behind 915 series trucks?

    It definitely moves the weight around. Especially to balance the amount of weight on the front axle. And even more important on these shorter wheelbase trucks (as compared to the typically longer OTR truck.) If you move the 5th wheel too far back, your front axle gets too light, and you no...

    Room for sleepers behind 915 series trucks?

    I am getting ready to buy an OTR truck. Thing is, I would much rather get a 915 series truck and put a sleeper behind it. Much cheaper, obviously. Darn cool! But HEAVY with the winch for the 916 and 920. Plus the drop in MPG with the front live axle. I know I could pull the winch and at least...
