I'm also hoping to get my wife driving the truck as well .I figure I have a 
chance with the Allison.
We intend setting the truck up with a slide on camper , and a trailer the 
same size as the truck tray , so we can use the camper , stock crate or 
whatever , on either.
Then those tractors and pieces of machinery for sale interstate will be a 
lot more attractive , we can take the camper and trailer , and away we go !.
