Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

I wonder if you were to build this beast for real would DOT put you out of service for too many lights or forbeing overlength.......Looks **** good....

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

As far as the lights go I believe you can have as many as you want as long as they are working. If ya have one light out ur gona get wrote up lol. And ya would prolly just have certain places that ya can pull it cuz of how long it is lol

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

I actually used to drive a Milk Truck on a route like that, except it had 2 lift axles ahead of the drivers as well as one behind. Big 4500 gallon tank on it.
