stev Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 A single axle superliner. With what appears to be a short sleeper no less. Appears to be set up as a mobile home toter truck. http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/ctd/1873680691.htmlWhat more (less?) could you want?

HK Trucking Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Seems kinda like a contradiction.Why would they want that long nose out in front, when the rear is chopped as short as possible to maneuver into tight jobsites with mobile homes?I like Superliners, but I don't think that is the right truck for that application!.

Rob Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Doesn't appear to have had the best of care neither. Definately incorrect for the job.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

GearheadGrrrl Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Back in the 80s United Van Bus, a carrier for Sears, had a whole fleet of single axle Superliners with sleepers. They pulled 28 foot doubles and made deliveries from the Sears warehouse in Minneapolis to retail stores in the region.

vision386 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I do believe a single axle superliner is somewhat of a rarity, the only ones i can remember seeing were the ones used by anheuser-busch back in the 80's to haul around the budwieser clydesdales, they had a least 4 that i saw,among other make trucks as well, but unlike this one, these were exceptionaly clean and well maintained,really sharp trucks!.......Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Yoos Brothers Construction Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 THAT'S JUST WRONG!!! It would look a lot better without a bunk.I like single axle Superliners but that one is to short. How about this one? I personally like it better and it has an E9-400 V8 under the hood . If it were closer to home it would be mine in a heart beat.

bulldog man Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 That just dont look right . I KNOW IF I BOUGHT IT IT WOULD BE IN A FRAME SHOP GETTING THE Frame Lengthed . As for the Single Axle SuperLiner that Josh posted that looks like a Californa that may have pulled Belly dump Pups esp if it has the E9 in it . Just Saying though .Later Yall Quote You Cant Fix Stupid. But You Can Numb It With A Sledgehammer.
