Buying a Heavy Truck need help with terminology
lol...well, first you need a licence to drive one. With that comes quite a bit of knowledge.
Second, if your buying one and don't know anything about them, I'm staying away from Richmond hill.
a 72" highrise prosleeper is the size of the bunk. or depth I should say...so 70" is like 6 feet or something right? so you've got 6' 2" of space between the back wall and the front seats.
It sounds to me like your planning on buying an International tractor...so the Eagle package is like the Eddie Bauer package from Ford....leather seats etc etc...

One thought would be to maybe check auctions..long shot but hey, you never know. Look in the rural areas also..since the mad cow scare, the trucking companies in the area have been hit hard financially and are usually seen trying to sell one or two or their rigs.
Definitely go Volvo, hope your pockets are mighty deep for it though. There are lots of places that sell rigs like this. Find a heavy machinery dealer to start or a heavy truck dealer. You should have tons of them out there.
