    That's actually a McAleese Transport Mack Titan.

    HHA went out of business last year due to over spending on equipment. IIRC no buyers, ~$65m business down the tubes. We have a few Titans in our fleet and those suckers ain't cheap. Somewhere around $300k a pop.

    Hows that Pinnacle treating you? specs? I'm willing to bet you'd rather be in the 93 in my avatar :D I can't judge the sleeper ones but the 2015 day cab I was in was a POS Mack should be ashamed of themselves to let Vulva do that. Rode like hell, spec'd 14k front I think some where in that area cus are permitts said 13.8 or 5? I can't remember and 46k rears. 99.5k gross with a 3 axle frac pump and the front didn't feel like 13k was on it. Sure would be sketchy in the winter on those lovely lease roads in west va

    I am always fascinated by those super heavy hauls. It's amazing they can make a truck and trailer that can haul something like that. I'd like to pull one just once before I'm done with trucking.

    Me too, heaviest I have ran is a 4 axle coiled tubing unit. Trailer itself is 145k + tractor weight.
