Nice ride, curious what is under the Hood? The last Tanker I drove had a 550 Cat with a Jake and a 9 speed trans, 9th was overdrive and in 9 th gear is were it stayed most of the time up hill and down. It was a joy to drive didn't shift much. Hauld a lot of oils and chemicales all over the states and eastern Canada. Ed

Thanks :D. It has a 500 hp 60 series Detroit motor in it. It has a Jake also. Kinda like this one. It's a little slow on the take off but once ya get it whound up ya don't know the trailer is back there lol. I asked him about putting some lights on it and he said that I could but I don't think he understood the words that came out of my mouth ���� lol.

"Some lights" probably means something different to him, but no take backs. Nice looking truck.

Thought I would go ahead and wire up the lights to make sure and low and behold one of them don't work. Gonna have to get in touch with the people where I got them from and see about getting a new one and maybe a few more :D

A few more.............You go all out i'm sure.......don't you ?

I can neither confirm nor deny that I will go all out but the way I see it is if you're gonna do it ya might as well do it right:D

[frizzen]

Is this truck going to need another alternator when your done?

[Smiley]

It shouldn't frizzen but if he lets me do what I want to do to the trailer it would prolly need 2 extra alternators:Dlol
