Now this is a truck

watched one take 20 min wiggling back and forth to get out of an isle parking spot at the pilot the other day.

 

Hot #### that thing is nicer than a few apartments I've lived in. I wonder how he does when he gets construction detoured in someplace like Seattle. Probably has his own team of midgets to hop out and move barricades for him.

 

Seen this bad boy over the weekend. Complete with pusher axle and big screen TV!

 

go to the links supplied on first post...

 

Honestly the truck isnt my cup of tea.

Good on the guy though if he has found a deal that will let him make money with that setup.

 

DANGGGGGGGGGG,,,

 

####.....thats bigger'n the first one.

 

well you can but you better hope dot dont catch ya and you know your way around the scale houses cuz they'll have a field day with ya

 

heck....don't you guys have length limits? Having that length pulling a 48' van behind it would have the "coneheads" running all over it with a tape measure over here. Max length here in Australia is 19 meters for a semi combination...(62ft). B- Doubles can run 19m for a "mini B" and 26m (85ft) max length...

Trying to do the math, a 386" wheelbase alone works out at 9.8 meters and the 48' van = 14.63 meters, length so far 24.43 meters.....(80ft)

dunno how you'd register that in Aussie land, but its a "wee bit" over the 19m limit.

Bloody nice unit though !!!!

 

Been from South Africa I have seen the threads where the Americans and the Europeans have a go at each others trucks.Here we have both along side each other so we know both.I could see both sides using a rig like this as an argument as to why their trucks are better.We don't have this type of American rig here though.I see it could work as a show truck or may have marketing appeal for some company's. My first reaction is however one of "oh No" because been a practical person I see all kinds head aches. I really don't think this kind of truck makes business sense beyond a marketing ploy.Is this what it is used for or do you guys actually have trucks like this that are used to haul freight competitively?
