OK, here's a photo of the "Armada" Optimus Prime.

In my opinion, it doesn't really look like a Mack nor a Kenworth. You might start with replicating a military truck to make the proper modifications for the bodywork to get the look you need.

Good luck.

would be a wide truck. maybe could be built on scx10 chassis/axles?

yeah kinda thinking that as well as an option building it on a scx10 6x6 setup i think it would be a really cool build and be really different.
