    It is indeed a flatbed as the truck has the shorter 60in sleeper Freightliner offers on the columbia.

    Thats an OLD model of a livestock trailer.


    If Swift was into that biz I'm sure they'd have newer equipment than that.
    I wonder if it isn't a power only trailer relocation load?????

    Thats what Im thinkin'. Possible a farmer ordered it and is paying Swift to move it. Pretty #### good shape though considering how old it is. Maybe extra livestock storage space or maybe a holding cell for his wife? :biggrin_25525:

    It's a straight floor livestock trailer, as opposed to a pot. Pot is short for pot belly. Wilson calls their pot belly a drop center and the line is called Silver Star.

    They actually sell new ones. It has 2 decks. Wilson calls that line Stockmaster

    That one may be a Wilson, from the trademark on the upper corner of the trailer.
