[RC] chick trucks - Jonni

I think one of the problems some of the ladies have had, are the seat height
vs leg length, and reaching the pedals. Many trucks now offer pedals that
actually move and adjust too, along with 6 way etc. adjustable seats.  If
one is not comfortable with shifting, reaching the pedals or what ever, then
it could be a hazard I guess.  Also, steering wheel height. I think most
trucks do have adjustable steering wheels, and not an "option" anymore.

Dabney, go test drive some trucks. Take Suzy, not Gary with you. LOL  Find
one that is comfortable for you, that will meet the needs of your weight
range of your trailer.  (I can just see Suzy working over a salesman
hehehehehe)  Then go tell Gary what you found.......<wink>

When my hubby has driven the "big truck" into work a few times, co-workers
would make comments on how big it was. He would just smile and say "Ahhh,
that's my wife's truck". Then, after he explained I put a camper on it, and
4 horse trailer, they would then comment about "She drives all that?"  They
would totally look amazed when he would comment about my cross country trips
with it to rides. City folks.....they just don't get it. If they only knew
what these horse owning ladies can do with out "men folk" along..
