      @AlexMartinez-bw9dm 8 месяцев назад

      I started out with 53 footers. I know they got smaller ones but I never requested to drive em. I just went with whatever was dispatched to me. They operate the same way. The smaller ones are just a bit easier to back into tight places because it's shorter, and it has quicker reaction time when you steer, but other than that ain't too much difference
