What's the story behind this? Looks interesting

Seeing that tank on the lowboy I expect the story may be for not public posting. And from where I'm sitting it more looks like she's pulling for Australia

One great looking super dog, no doubt

M551 Sheridan tank on the low bed. Heading to a museum?

I thought the first picture was the world famous "Mrs. Mack"!    .....Hippy

I agree with Vlad!  With the Bull Bar and front mud flaps I also thought it was Australian at first.. Until I saw who posted it, but there are some big Elk, Antalope, and Mule Deer in the Rocky Mtns..

Great looking Truck! What’s the story of the tank ? Very interesting!

I wonder what the specs are on that beauty.

That is Mike and Kelly Osborne Trucking, near Riverton, WY.

Mike has moved multiple military vehicles for a new museum there in Wyoming.

Other than an occasional red engine, almost all their powers are V8 thumpers.

Mike can give you all the details on the truck.

This is one of the prime movers from the southern branch, Osborne Down Under.

Nice and Clean! Is it the same Osborne form Wyoming? If so how is it getting in and out of Aussie land these COVID days?

The cab looks a little strange by the cowling. Is there a different cab on the Superliner? Almost Certain it is a V8 with heavy rears.

The Rajah truck is a R800, E9, 9 1/2' wide prime mover and is part of the Osborne operation based at Champions, Rockhampton, Queensland, AU

Mack Australia used R-model cab along with R700 chassis to build Superliners. We discussed this subject a few times on here.
