Trux Revolution series I thinks what they call them. Bright as chit and if you're wanting the ones that switch to white, they are insanely bright.

Running lights. Gotta take some of it with a grain of salt, pics were taken with an iPhone. They make lights glare.

Oh they're bright. However the way it was before, honestly concerned me. I had almost been rear ended, sideswiped, tboned etc at night because apparently people couldn't see me. So now, that's not a problem.

8 axle son the ground! How heavy is that thing?

Please tell me the tractor is a tri-drive. That would be awesome!

It belongs to JL heavy haul. It's a pusher. Our area isn't common at all to have tri-drives.
They run outta Springfield which is 45-50 minutes from me. They have 5 pride and class heavy haul trucks among other stuff. Owners are amazingly nice down to earth people.

That's not saying a whole lot. Sometimes I have to look to make sure mine are on.

Opinions on C15 475hp Acert?
In an 06 T800 we're looking at for a lowboy truck.
250k on truck, 22k on new engine

06 should be an MXS, pretty solid motor in my opinion, I spent a lot of seat time in a 550mxs and loved it. The only thing that really went wrong with it was I lost an IVA once and that killed the power. But with a good tune in them they're unstoppable and pull pretty good economy numbers

Click the image to open in full size. Seen this old kenworth at a truck stop the other day, so I stopped and talked with the owner. He said he built it/put it together in his driveway years ago with pretty much just hand tools.

So as long as it is not a DPF motor it is nothing to worry about? I'd never really heard much good about newer cat motors
