    Strictly a vocational application. Cement mixer, deck truck with big knuckle crane and the odd special spec dump truck. You'll never see one with a fifth wheel as you'll never get up to wieght on both steers. Unless he has a big self unloader mounted on there as in a logging application. Lots of these here in Canada

    Usually see that setup on stinger trucks out here in the patch. Usually tridrives with the twin steers. They have 5th wheels way at the back. Usually see them toting a tridem float trailer for rig mats and stuff.
