    Trained on a pumper similar to this while I was a volunteer firefighter back in 2005.

    Nice looking 379....I like the sky blue color....
    I get to drive a 379 about once every two weeks....and one of my favorites to drive....I especially like the steering wheel with the elbow holes in the spokes so you can steer with your elbow.....err, never mind that thought, no driver would do that!!!:biggrin_25513:

    No pics of it, but my favorite truck was a 2002 Kenworth T800, with a C-15, and a 15-speed Fuller road tractor. Thing rode like a dream.

    Wish we saw more Petes here in Australia. They look real low and sleek. Sure cant miss one of them comin' down the road.

    Spotted a real flash KW at the wharf the other day here in Melbourne, real neat custom job.

    heres the site... they do some great work

    Hmm...have to say, my best drive to date. KW T908 across to Perth, West Australia. With a 600 cummins under the hood, kinda forgot there was an F250 on the back of the trailer !!!! :biggrin_255:

    may not be the nicest but it is defiantly the strongest, 475/1850 turned to 550 with 6999 codes 18 speed and 390's, averaging a 50000kg gross daily there isn't much that will get by me on a hill . I haul round wood, wood chips, and the mobile chippers (the chippers weigh about 80000lbs)
