That's alright, he's only good for a Cherry Coke and fries...It doesn't have a sleeper.

Okay, a bit longer than the span on mine. I have 178", with a Set Back Axle in front. Yours looks to be an SBA also, the curve in the front bumper is the giveaway.187”
I think it’ll be a fun truck. Here’s a couple more pics. I can help y’all with RR track standards also.Okay, a bit longer than the span on mine. I have 178", with a Set Back Axle in front. Yours looks to be an SBA also, the curve in the front bumper is the giveaway.
On a Set Forward Axle, the steer tires are right at the front corners of the truck. Gives a longer wheelbase, but sacrifices maneuverability.
SBA is a good choice in tighter places; feedlots, supply yards, etc.
That goes a good way toward explaining the relatively smooth ride.
Sure looks like a nice truck. I hope it does what you need.

A friend of mine knew a guy who bought a Ferret (the British armored scout car with "tyres," not the little varmint) in Houston back in the early '80s. He went to get it tagged, but Texas wouldn't give him a tag because it didn't have a bumper.I cut 30” off the tail today. That double fram was fun. I’ll study on how I want to “finish” the tail end. Might put a “bumper” all the way across the back so I can hang flaps, hang license plate, maybe some recessed tail lights. Thatd also give me a rear support for the fenders I’m gonna build.
Jared, with the changes you've made/will make, you can now legitimately put a "HYBRID" emblem on your 'new' truck!!
Keep on truck'n!
