Very cool. There was something similar (although a bit closer to a car size) in Hot Rod a month or two ago as well.

Awesome! You could tow your boat with your hot rod!

Loud pipes save lives, baby!

 

[THEJOKER]

This is a cool truck!

Loud pipes save lives, baby!

I hear screaming detroits in my sleep. The owner of the gravel pit here has a huge fleet of old Terex loaders and rock trucks that buzz around all day every day. Add to that the two 16-71 powered draglines that run a few hundred yards away. Hearing them on a daily basis makes a hater out of anyone, in fact since I started typing this post 3 Eucs have driven past my office.

Cool truck Brian, anymore pics?

Gotta be louder than chit with those pipes

All of the old Detroits are loud. I love the sound of one of those 2 cycle diesels spooling up. Unless it is outside your bedroom window like Tony's
