    Great video James Twelve looks good as a flat top. Look even better without the fairings on the tanks and better with steps on the tanks give you a little more ground clearance for logging. Thanks for sharing stay safe James and Jessica.

    The truck looks a lot better now. But you know the roof flaring was used to cut down on the wind drag to the trailer. Which helped save on fuel. Can't wait to see more of you and your videos.

    @fredschell3972 5 месяцев назад +1

    James, I noticed you revved your engine up before you turned it off. That causes your turbo to turn at a high speed with no oil supplied to it and raw fuel to wash down the cylinders. I always let my truck idle a while before shutting it down. Just a thought. Your doing a great job with your fleet. Thanks for keeping us entertained. Long time subscriber.

    Hi James and Jessica looked a little iffy for a minute or two, but off it came. Too bad that stack couldn’t be saved but rust never sleeps. Think it looks better without it. I don’t know if you’ll really need it anyway it’s probably gonna be a log hauling truck. You should probably take the side fairings off too. They will probably give you ground clearance issues if I remember correctly those were pretty low on that style truck. Hopefully the top cleans up ok sometimes you take those off and the paint is pretty bad under there. Stay safe
