    When your budget is like ours its a little at a time. I pulled the horns and put 6 more roof lights on first. then got the panels under cab and sleeper 650.00 new with 359 style leds. Then the leds by the breathers and hood extensions between batt box and hood. It looked funny with the 11 cab lights and hardley no other lights. There is a place off exit 55 on 67 in Bald Knob green stamps swayed them for me a little but they had them in stock and I wanted them.

    I purchased quite a few things from big rig chrome shop as well. Their customer service is great also there's no hassle on returns.

    Thats a nice ol girl. I have always hauled wood in maine but now i decided to forget 90 miles of rough woods road every day and got a run from new haven Connecticut to a tire disposal plant in maine near my home. Figured since im running the big roads now i got to look good doing it. Been checking out everyone's trucks and cought the chrome bug. I got the lights in front of the air breathers. Now i want the round led ligts for my mirror brackets and matching for the corners of my bumper. Not sure what brackets to get

    The first one is what she looked like when I brought her home, then at dark with the lights. The 379 beside me in the 3rd belongs to my 19 soon to be 20 year old son. And I'm proud of all 3 of them thanks. The 59 was slated to be a dump truck but funds ran short, luckily he still had the original sleeper.

    Thats insane. Im a 359 nut. A guy down the road has one out in the trees. Unfortunately he knows what its worth. Got to love that Corvette dash. I still think my wife has something to do with why he wont sell it to me

    I have had several, but this one is my favorite. Money can't buy it. Its worked every day that I roll out. My wife bought this one for me we have a history. I was the relief driver for the original owner. Just couldn't afford it when his widow put it up for sale. She seen it up by the dump truck guys fence for sale and bought it. I coulda killed her at first lol but it worked out.
