    Nope. Mines a blue freightliner.
    Besides I learned at the very young age of three what a ton was when my mom tried to use the whole darn thing on my backside.

    The 23 year old girl driving that truck was a newbie driver. She said she wasn't sure what 6 tons was ? Plus she said she did not feel comfortable backing up ?
