    Before reading what you typed at the bottom, I thought you were going to say something about all the tires being in good condition.

    I'm sitting right next to it, they do look brand-new.
    The whole chassis looks brand spanking new!

    Lol .... I'm sure it is a coveted item for the can haulers ... a brand new chassis ... better hide it, whoever is pulling it!

    they are starting to become common, first noticed them with JB and UPS, now some of the UPHZ are hub piloted.
