  1. I gotta' agree with O.D.,allthough i do take a LOT of shit,im sorry "things" with me on the road,sometimes too much is too much! Clark has several "Largecars" leased on with HUGE sleepers,granted many are husband/wife teams and do spend as many as six months (yes really) on tour,i always thought these trucks were not very practical for the job needed! anyone who's ever backed into the Nashville performing arts center,the Vegas Convention center,pretty much ANY theater in the northeast could attest to that! Many is the time we'd have to rent a single axle,or spot trailers for the "big boys" just too long to get in most places! plus they always have problems crossing the border (Canada) because of wheelbase restrictions............................Mark

  16. Personally,i prefer the stock-classic look in a truck,tasteful upgrades that add safety,driveability,comfort etc. are OK with me,but some of the "upgrades" are just ridiculous!...........................................Mark
