This would be different?

That would be something cool, and different. I see quite a few Freightliners and Macks delivered like this. Not so many Peterbilts or Kenworths. Odd, because there is a dealer for each, all pretty local and close to each other, in my area. Sometimes they pull the front wheels off, and sometimes the first rear drive axle's wheels too. Not really sure what the benefit is, as the first drive wheels never touch the ground, most of the time. Maybe they pull them off to prevent them from touching, on a longer travel suspension?

If it's not a direct delivery, they're prone to stealing the tires/wheels without having to jack-up the tractor (done at truckstops and etc. real quick).

That thought never even crossed my mind! I guess I wouldn't make a good criminal.
