    As in a box truck when the cargo is permanently mounted to the vehicle. This is an example of a hotshot:

    Should a box truck not be easier? I drove an inter city GMC with a 2 stroke Detroit in Nashville. When you come to a low bridge remember to get out and look just like going the other way loaded.
    Permanently mounted cargo? Must be a government job to lower unemployment?

    it is not difficult but it will be different driving both the setups

    each will have its own challenges, they are actually different industries.

    not your regular apple to apple comparisons
