    Hit a deer in Indiana...hit the sleeper then hit the corner of the trailer then bounced off and wiped out the passenger side of the car that was traveling beside me!

    Since the wheels had never been cut before...I had a guy down in Douglas, GA. Cut them...(when someone uses the term "cut" for the wheels...its where they use a high speed buffer with a special wheel and a dull bar to cut the oxidation and grime off the wheels) just so were clear and people don't assume I actually used a saw and cut the wheel..LOL...but once they are "cut" then you polish them by hand and they shine really well!! As long as you keep them up then you won't have to get them cut again...and they need to be covered when you get the truck wash because the "brightener" used at truck washes has acid and will turn the wheels white again and then they will need to be cut again!!

    Just let the employees at the truck wash facility know that you don't want any brightener sprayed on the wheels and tanks and they will cover them up prior to washing!!

    Ok, thought maybe you were carrying around some sort of cover with you.

    Looks good Whitey, I would definately be proud to drive that rig. Do you have some interior pics, curious what the T700's look like inside.
