Apple haulers

The economy is really slow around here. Not much happening in the heavy equipment and construction buisnesses so I have gone back to hauling apples. They are not my trucks, I am working for a fellow with 2 trucks. He used to haul lumber as well but that has gone way down too. Trucks have 550 Cats, 18 speed, and lockers. We usually gross out around 125,000lbs.

    those are some nice K-Whoppers. I really like the single drop btrain too. Only downside i see to that setup is the pin being to low to pull without the lead.
