    I can tell most trucks at night just by looking at the headlights

    I can tell pretty much by looking at the mirrors. Does not help with the model number's in a brand but does help with telling what brand it is. Every brand has mirrors with a different style. Also the grill of each one usually has a certain look to it. Those are the ways I can tell.

    That truck has many custom features... All of which make it a very slick looking machine!

    Speaking of trucks, I found out today I’m getting a brand new 389. I get to pick the color. Don’t know what engine yet, but tranny will be a 13 speed. My current 389 has a 10 speed.
     
    MACK E-6, Speed_Drums, Deshano and 2 others Thank this.

    I wish I could get LIME GREEN, but that color cost extra so doubt that’s gonna happen.
