Hey Turbo. Thanks for sharing. It's an impressive size of roll off box to use. Here a trailer with a roll off system is hard to find. Did you have to help loading it because the truck engine didn't have enough power?

The same HTS however has a 40 ft. container trailer in their program which can load and unload by itsself. I'm not a salesman from HTS in case you might think Teeth

I dont think the Kenworth had the same hydraulic pump system as the freightliner. It was very rare for me to have to help load the box on the little freight shaker, but was almost mandatory to help the kenworth

The Sterling truck looks to have some similarity to Mack?
