Well Chuckster: you have really outdone yourself. All these new trucks should satisfy the most grumpy collectors including myself. Job well done. I will be broke and in debt for years to come. Thank God I get 50% off! CAW

Thanks Chuck. The pics look pretty good for the Petes up there. The Western Stars are back man o man. Good thing there is a hospital by the DHS place so I can sale a kidney? Slightly used it is still good shape if anyone is looking

This is great news! Been looking for a nice new heavy haul tractor for some time now. I just have one question for anyone who can answer it reallly.

The old WSI kenworth c500 in red has white wheels in the rear. The new version appears to have chromed wheels. Will they be white or chromed? I personally am not a fan of the white at all. Any info helps!

Just ordered my 3 premay trucks. Cool little bit of History my current employer was the man who started Premay Equipment with one truck back in the 60's. He sold out to Mullen in 1996 and in 1997 Started Myshak Sales & Rentals. Love them premay trucks.

Ken: I still have my red Nelson ramp trailer with the most beautiful Pete ever made, the "Wendt" livery. Trouble is I still don't know what it would be used for. The wheels are too large for anything to drive up the ramps. I have a stack of galvanized metal pipes as a load. Gosh I love the looks of it though. CAW

Chuck: How can this guy pre-sell your new trucks on Ebay? Who the heck would pay money up front six weeks in advance? What's the deal? CAW

CAW, here is a picture of my 379/Ramp Trailer with a mining loader. Second is a KW C500 with the ramp trailer. I think, if you take the ramps off, a roller tail could be installed. That would make a nice oil field trailer. I like the C500 hooked to it better. Whistle Shhh Ken

Yes Kenneth old boy, I agree. The KW C500B looks great. But that underground machine would never be able to drive up the ramp. correct? Since you have the red ramp, do you still have the "Wendt" Pete? CAW

I'll most likely be picking up another Pete and I'm sure somewhere down the road I'll kick myself for not getting more while they're available. If you ever decide to switch the KWs over to a standard hood I'd grab several of those.

Just a little note to tell you these trucks are selling fast. If you are interested in the heavy haul C500B or the 4964SX-1, order it today.

Hope to get them in early 2018!

Question to Chuck. I take it that the new Volvo, Peterbilt and Kenworths will have functional steering and suspension correct? But will the doors, hood open along with will there be a removable roof similar to the Freightliners that were released prior years? And will the line connections be compatible with the sword trailers to connect to them? Sorry for the questions but figured I'd ask the mastermind.

Love that idea for the ramp trailer Ken. While you're at it change the wheels out for some Lo-Pros.

Quinella just to let you know the forward axle on your ramp trailer can be raised and lowered, but I’m absolutely sure you knew that already. Didn’t you?
Chuck I’m broke, do you know if Craig bought me anything with his discount?
