In regards to getting the Eaton 18 speed, I'd advise against that. Our 12 spd freedomline seems to have too many gears at times. 12th gear will get you from 50 mph to 80mph (or however fast you want to go). Another thing is, with 18 spds that alot of shifting. Even on ours the shift pattern is 3-5-7-9-11-12, and it seems like alot of shifting. If i'm not mistaken the Eaton's have to shift thru every gear, and cant skip any.
For Truck selection the only reason I;d run anything other then a Volvo or Frtlnr, is looks, and the Kenworth T2000 is definately trhe sharpest looking truck out there.
I think ShowHauler could easily satisfy your needs, as everything you have mentioned is not that out of the norm. (other then your 'pandemic proof' bubble that you should own)
