I used to own around a 69 model year IH dump that had air but per the spec plate was rated 26k. That was about the ownly one I ever saw too.
You come acrossed a lot of Freightliners with Mercedes engines. I have driven some Columbia's and Century's with them and they did okay. The one issue was that not all of the companies shops had software to service them. That could be a factor when seeking out service.
That little Pete 335 that I mentioned was around an 04 or 05. It had plenty of room for my legs, something a lot of these class 6 trucks do not have. It did have a nicely laid out driver friendly cab. The fit, finish and quality were pretty good overall. With single leaf front springs and air bags on the rear with a really short wheelbase, the ride was good practice for the PBR association.
SouthernX, that weight is on the high side for a gooseneck. You planning on a fifth wheel hookup?
I saw a FL60 with a fifth on the net the other day, think it was out in California.
