    You won't find them here either. The last truck i drove that required double clutching was a 77 kw with a 5x4. While our trucks aren't fully synchronized, it's been over thirty years since double clutching was required. Most guys don't even use the clutch at all unless taking off from a full stop.

    Lol one definitely is a flatbed maybe two. All the other photos you must be blind or stupid to not see the fifth wheels. Even the big blue one has a fifth wheel on it. Yes some are the same truck just different angles for you. You are not going to win this one. They are more common than you think. Especially construction materials delivery trucks.

    Not a day goes past where I don't see a twin steer tridrive crane truck pulling a tridem float.

    There are hundreds of these trucks all over the oil patch:

    The white one is a flatbed with a rear mounted crane.
