David Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 If he took the doghouse out of the cab, it's probably like a two bedroom apartment. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/17214-what-the-hell/#findComment-70207 Share on other sites More sharing options...

theakerstwo Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I saw it at the Tulsa KW dealer about 14 years ago.It was in gray primer then. And yes it is ugly but i guess he is in confort in there. He showed mw aound on the outside and ask if i would needed any more info. That has some wheel base to it.I think he is from Mo.It did win a ugly truck contest some were.

bullhusk Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Maybe he's got a BBQ grill under that hood??? Could be built in Mexico? Ron Popiel one that didn't make QVC?

slpwlker Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I think thats a Landstar Inway truck with the 43 number. I just can't remember what was on the door when I saw it.

Rob Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Most, (if not all) folks that meet "Momma" say she is one ugly gal too; but she fits my need, (especially with the hog ring in her nose) and that's all that really matters don't it?I've seen that truck a couple of times on the road myself. I don't think it is anything I'd be interested in doing but when I've seen it once he was carrying a D10, (minus the ripper, blade, and u frame) and the second time was some D11 undercarriage parts. I'll bet there is a lot of motor under the monstrosity of a hood.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Seems to me it was pulling a lowboy with some sort of machine onboard............Mark Quote Mack Truck literate. Computer illiterate.
