    Went back and looked closer. You are probably right.

    The right front does not have the look of a volvo.

    Good catch.

    Definently a Freightliner Century Class with some kind of weird aftermarket visor. It does not appear to be a company truck.

    I think its a Freightliner Columbia because you can see the lights from the side the Century's are recessed a little. Definitely those are Aftermarket graphics that the dealers use to dress up old company trucks.

    Here's a pic of a Columbia for the poster..

    My first thought of the very front end was a IH. But it could be the columbia too.

    You guys have been ultra helpful. I truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge. I have some other photos from the same camera, they're attached but very similar. If anyone notices anything else, please let me know.

    Thanks.......Hartzco

    I saved the pics and went to photobucket. I tried to zoom and flip the pics and tried to darken and lighten to get a better shot at any numbers. I could not see anything. I would think tho that someone would have the technology to get a better shot. Have you talked to anyone about enhancing the security tape?

    Security Cameras are usualy 640x480. Blowing them up will only pixelate the image. Now if the camera had been closer to the light pole, then you might have been able to get a clearer image with the DOT number. Or a plate number.
     
    notarps4me Thanks this.

    Agreed. Also notice the light on the cab extenders. Volvos have a side marker light just behind the doors and it only comes on when the turn signals are on. FL's have them on the cab extenders (aka batwings) and the light will burn anytime the parking and/or headlights are on.

    As already mentioned, no way of knowing for sure who owns this truck or under whose authority it operates from these pictures.
