Planning on building a truck with garage. We drove a 45'(with garage)freightliner columbia, mercedes 450, dual drive and was not satisfied with the drive/ride. Since this was our first truck ride maybe you all can help.
1. Could not adjust the air seat to stop bouncing(may it difficult to keep constant pressure on the gas pedal and steering wheel straight).
2. Very sluggish off the line-possible needs bigger engine?
3. Steering seemed to be a lot of turns lock-to-lock?
4. Steering wheel did not return to neutral position when turning.
5. Overall ride was rough and jerky.
Any suggestions would be aprreciated as we expect to test drive another one soon. Thanks.
