IF they used the same motor and transmission, the truck with 3.55s would turn higher RPMs at speed, but would be better suited for hills. A truck with 3.55s typically will turn 1500 RPMs at 70 MPH. The truck with 3.08s would turn a lot less RPMs at speed. However, it's extremely unlikely the truck with 3.08s will have the same transmission - it would be geared much too high. It probably has a lower geared transmission than what the truck with 3.55s is using.

What are two differences between a heavy truck driver and a light truck driver?

A light truck is any truck under 4000 lbs, while a heavy truck is a truck heavier than 26,001 lbs. One difference between the two drivers would be the license requirement. A driver of a heavy truck is required to have a Class A commercial license while a light truck driver only needs a regular Class C license. Another difference is that a Class A driver is subject to U.S. Department of Transportation oversight, so the driver must maintain a logbook, have a medical examination every two years, and is subject to random drug tests. In addition, a large truck driver is likely to be paid more than a person driving a light truck.

Where can you find Trucks that they use for Hot Shot Trucking?

A "hot shot" is simply a single axle truck pulling a multiple axle trailer. It could be anything from a 1 ton pickup up to a Class 8 truck (technically, any single axle would be rated as Class 7, but there's a big difference between a truck which is a true Class 7 truck and a truck which is basically a Class 8 truck with one less axle). So, what exactly are you looking for? Try car dealerships, truck dealerships, Auto Trader, Truck Trader, Heavy Equipment Trader, Craigslist, Ebay Motors, etc.
