Not quite my own but i wouldn’t say no. I took this pictuure at the Mid-West Truckshow in Louisville, Kentucky back in 2001 or 2002, i thought it was gorgeous. Blue with a touch of subtle customising, perfect.

I enjoyed it, some nice trucks and interesting combinations, i don’t care if they dont ride aswell as european trucks i still want one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!http://www.kenworth.com/5400_own_gal.asp

  Now i don’t really know how to get round this, so seeing as its my first time doing it i’ll wait for the complaints to come in. This article below is all about what sounds like a brilliant American show, which i’m hoping we’ll get over here on some Sky TV channel or another. But i have taken it all from Free Mature Moms, i have no idea why its called that, but there you go. Thanks to them for what i thought was a nice little article. Its a nice insight into the Americans!!! also click on the link for the chrome my truck site, lock away your credit card though!! No idea why i’m in big black letters either, computers and me seem to still have troubles getting on.

Semi Truck Accessories – 5 Trick My Truck Accessory Tips for Truckers!

Last fall, CMT (Country Music Television) introduced a six 6 show pilot called “Trick My Truck. It is a new reality show featuring a deserving trucker and his 18-wheeler in each episode. The show is a theme similar to “pimpmyride” and “overhaulin”, where old vehicles are restored except the target vehicles are semi trucks. A crew of experts searches the truck stops of America looking for run-down trucks whose owners are in need of a break. With the secret help of family members, the owner operator’s big rig is “hijacked”, and completely revamped with all the latest and greatest features and equipment.

How to trick your truck is 5 easy steps! When truckers leave home for the road, there focus is usually on everything but finding semi truck chrome accessories for their truck. However, something may spark them to call us on a whim and ask: “where can I find semi truck accessories to trick my truck?” Here are some tips to find the big rig accessories you need.

Have the last 8 digits of your VIN availableUnlike light truck accessories, semi truck accessories are manufactured specifically for a truck, such as Peterbilt accessories or Kenworth accessories. Or, semi truck accessory manufacturers also produce universal accessories. Universal accessories are designed to be used on all makes and models of trucks. If you have the VIN available, a good semi truck accessory distributor can look up your truck and see specific manufacturer diagrams to determine if accessories are specifically made for your vehicle. For example, if you’re looking for Peterbilt chrome or Freightliner accessories, they are easier to locate with a VIN.

A picture says a thousand words It makes it much easier for a semi truck accessory supplier to find accessories for your truck if they have a quality photo to work with when they communicate with semi truck accessory manufacturers. In almost all cases, an experienced semi truck accessory distributor can locate specific parts with a broadcast email to many semi truck accessory manufacturers.

Save the rainforest. Get comfortable using online catalogs!As any experienced semi truck accessory distributor will tell you, 15-20 requests for paper catalogs are received each day. Printing costs and paper are extremely expensive so semi truck accessory manufacturers usually produce every two years. Paper catalogs also significantly impact the cost structure of big rig accessories. Online catalogs are the best to locate your semi truck accessories because most manufacturers keep their websites current with the latest additions to their product lines. For example, Rockwood products has several new 2006 model Peterbilt accessories that you can only see on their website, or a special flyer distributed through their dealers.

Older trucks need love too! At least two to three times a day someone calls with an older truck application. They are usually frustrated because they haven’t found any chrome for their truck. Ask your supplier if a custom quote is available for the accessory you want. this is not an unusual request. Semi truck manufacturers have the tooling in place to make almost any customized semi truck accessory you request.

From roof to fender to grill to cab, you can find all the accessories you need that will have your truck reflecting your independent and freewheeling spirit. Using the tips we discussed, you shouldn’t have any problem dressing up your truck with trickmytruck semi truck accessories.
