Today, I was driving home east from ABQ and noticed a 30' flatbed with nothing but concrete blocks strapped down.
The Big Tex weighed 8-10k and had about 15-20 blocks strapped down.
As I went to pass, I noticed a 23+ just by the mirrors.
The driver's door said Cummins tested and developed or something to that effect.
The crew cab's rear was noticeably larger than my 23' crew cab; the class was taped over with electric tape (it was a 4500-5500).
Then, the grill was masked with some tiger-striped trash bag material.
The headlights looked different, but it was hard to tell.
Looking more like a 4th Gen.
It was pulling some weight, and I slowed down to let the driver catch up.
The cab looks large in the back.
I suspect that he was testing the 8hp.
He looked nervous as I was rocking the 7.3L.
I just gave him the thumbs up and rolled on.
