  22. ok thats what you call them I call them orange flashing lights strobe lights were in discos or night clubs LOL Paul
  23. strobe lights ???????? yeah its a bit of coin but the old Superliners are still worth a packet out here as they say they just dont make them like that anymore but were else are you gunna buy a truck rated to 200 ton or 440,000 pounds as the US ton is only 2000 pound for that type of coin the E9 was a hard motor to beat in its day and still is today and the Maxitorque trans well pretty much the whole trucks are to beat back when new and still hold there own now 30 years later and I could see me loosing a finger real quick in that steering wheel Paul
