    BUT, I will bet the first few times took some conscious thought???

    Yes it does! I have had Australian friends come over several times to drive it to shows and I repeat myself telling them to be aware that they don't think they are back home and move over into the left lane! We have had some fun times with a passenger playing with his phone or acting as though he is sleeping when another truck or car passes on the left!. I have had officers come out of the scale houses and walk around to only find no one sitting there.

    Mike is good people. Help me out on some oddball engine bearings for my E9.

    Yes he and his entire family are the best!! We agreed that this year he was coming out to Plymouth and the Brooks show with me. Hopefully the Brooks show will not be cancelled since it is late August but we will see! You may know this but Mike has suffered from cancer on just about every part of his body and he keeps on defeating it...………..amazing and unreal.

    Got this Superliner E9 down here in Phoenix that will change what you heard real quick. LOL

    1150hp to the ground in it's prime. It is turned down a bit now from its sled pulling days, still sought for sure. 

    A lot of the, fuel, A/C, power steering, etc, lines on top of these E9's can be rerouted to clean up the look.

    I was just thinking the other day when I hooked it to my low deck and loaded the LTH logger (heavy) and the Pete 390 also heavy. I weighed in the low 70's and I went up the Siskiyou mountain doing a steady 65-70...could have done even more in it but a few of the bends I definitely sucked up the seat!!! That truck had unreal power! You could wind it up to 4000rpms and it sounded like a sewing machine. I am not sure if the firing order was modified on that or not??
