It's not a dream, you could pick a similar VNL630 up for much less than what you think.

Real power, real frame, real brakes, and that Volvo cab is as quiet as any new Dodge or Ford half-ton. Some of them might even have the autoshift in them.

Wouldn't have to go like this guy did from the cab back, you could do a nice checker-plate aluminum deck, or stained wood, it would all look great.

Go get your CDL and forget about that $70,000.00 Cummins Dodge.
