    needs about two feet of rail added to it. loose the ugly ear fenders. I hate them things. just put a nice stainless LOW 1/4 or 1/2 fender on it. the full fenders make even a long truck look shrter. on a shrt canadian truck it just looks rediculas.

    the wheel covers youhave are called "T canes" named after the guy who builds (or built) them. not sure if they are still being made. Yours look to be stainless by the slightly brown tinge to them. They are VERY expensive by the way so take care of them. I like the ones on the rear but the front ones have always looked a bit odd to me. you don't have them on front though.

    you can google T cane or mabey it's T Kane. there is a website I think

    are those LED bulkhead flush lights in the top of the visor? personally I like my trucks with cab lights and horns. I'm not big on the trend of reoving it all. and actually les and less people are doing it these days

    can I have the old bumper?

    wheres midland?

    don't trash it up with all the chicken light. I like lights as much as th next guy but you paid god money for that truck with the style it has. and the style it has is a lean clean style which does not look good with light. if you do add lights add them underneath the bunk n cab and frame so they give a nice glow off the tanks and ground but you don't see the lights

    lol, the fenders are staying. The bumper will be swapped out over the next couple of days with one of our other trucks that sits higher on tall rubber.

    The current bumper is 24" tall, and will be going to about a 18" or so. I need the clearance for the roads I travel on are not the best.


    I wish it did have a little bit longer frame, possibly like this:

    Almost the same truck. It is from the same company however out of Canada.

    I've worked oilfield. I know how it is.

    Who do you work for and what type of hauling do you do?

    I work for a company out of Odessa Tx, called Logan Transportation Inc. (logantrans, google it). I normally haul a Case 721 forklift around doing lift work. When I'm not doing that, I haul pipe, or gas compressors regionally.


    The forklift is the main reason in having the fenders. Going down these lease roads would throw rocks all over the place if I didn't have them. Just ask my old 2004 Pete with dings in the headache rack, lol

    The color according to Peterbilt is called "Baffin Blue". Sure not very many of them around. The pic above is not my truck, but mine is identical almost. Pics of mine are on page 1, and page 2.

    Thanks gal for the resize ;)
