Truckers, lets see your rigs!

Weekend updated version 3.0 or whatever number I'm at.

The 10 on the side are also gonna be wired to a switch to turn to clear on my command.

What lights are those?

Trux Revolution series I thinks what they call them. Bright as chit and if you're wanting the ones that switch to white, they are insanely bright.

that's just ignorant bright..sorry...

Is that running lights or are those brakes lights that bright?

 

[BRE]

Running lights. Gotta take some of it with a grain of salt, pics were taken with an iPhone. They make lights glare.

Oh they're bright. However the way it was before, honestly concerned me. I had almost been rear ended, sideswiped, tboned etc at night because apparently people couldn't see me. So now, that's not a problem.

I ordered a few of those for my Headache Rack, and some too put in the Semis at Work.

8 axle son the ground! How heavy is that thing?

Please tell me the tractor is a tri-drive. That would be awesome!

Probably just a pusher axle. Thats how all our trucks are are at work. Not many tri axles out there.

 

[BRE]

It belongs to JL heavy haul. It's a pusher. Our area isn't common at all to have tri-drives.
They run outta Springfield which is 45-50 minutes from me. They have 5 pride and class heavy haul trucks among other stuff. Owners are amazingly nice down to earth people.

That's not saying a whole lot. Sometimes I have to look to make sure mine are on.

Opinions on C15 475hp Acert?
In an 06 T800 we're looking at for a lowboy truck.
250k on truck, 22k on new engine

06 should be an MXS, pretty solid motor in my opinion, I spent a lot of seat time in a 550mxs and loved it. The only thing that really went wrong with it was I lost an IVA once and that killed the power. But with a good tune in them they're unstoppable and pull pretty good economy numbers

That is the compound turbo motor? This one is compound turbo

 

[Mr.T]

Yep, anything after 04 is.

Seen this old kenworth at a truck stop the other day, so I stopped and talked with the owner. He said he built it/put it together in his driveway years ago with pretty much just hand tools.

So as long as it is not a DPF motor it is nothing to worry about? I'd never really heard much good about newer cat motors

That dude is all over the "mercury sleepers" page on Facebook. That's a classy old girl
