If you stretch yours that long, at least put a mega sized sleeper on it!

Nice... I would do it differently though... I would move the cab back about 5' add a lot bigger sleeper and stretch and reform the frontend,>> enlongate the fenders to give it an 18 Wheeler/Rolls Royce effect. I love the shaved lights and tight bumper.
I know... I know... Whatever.

I feel funny in my pants. Love those stretched rigs. Guess it's kind of an aquired taste. Look even tougher running super singles on the steers.

Those do look sweet. It kind of does have to be your thing though. There is a local company around here that haul tanks for the government and all of them have trucks like that (one even has spinners) They all look nice and are old Peterbuilts.

Those trucks are awesome. There is a way to customize everything out there.

oh, and if I had a truck like that I would definately have spinners on it
