First Run

Yeah agree it's not worth it for hotshotting just sayin they do exist but not from the factory.

 

Sharp looking truck. Feels like its getting rare to see new pickups rolling out of the factory with clearance lights on the roof.

 

Kinda.... If the truck comes from the factory over 80” wide it needs the clearance lights per DOT. Some trucks are not over 80” , but can have an aftermarket bed added to them - then you need the lights. On F350 SWD and Ram 3500 SWD it is an option- but step up to a DRW - it’s mandatory.

Amber lights means the vehicle is heading towards you. Red lights means that the vehicle is heading the same direction as you are. This is super important because a vehicle can be in your lane and if you see amber lights then you know it may be trying to pass another vehicle and a potential danger is present. If red lights are ahead, then you automatically know that a wider vehicle is ahead and it may be traveling slower than you so beware.

 

I pretty much meant all of them in general. I guess mostly SRW. Seeing more and more without roof clearance lights.

 

Congrats on your first run Gear. Just finished my 5th as a trucker and so far so good.

 

I agree. Lots of negativity on this forum but I suspect much of it comes from disgruntled 18whl drivers.

 

Maybe off topic here but I have a 09 GMC Duramax and was wondering what other owners use for oil? 5-40 Mobile1 seems to be popular.

 

So it's been over a month. Still in the game?
