New truck and trailer build. First photos of the truck added!

Since my new trailer got rear ended on my first sled trip and it just got totalled off this week (8 months later :face-icon-small-con ). I ended up ordering a 48' Precision Cargo enclosed trailer. I ordered a new truck in August and it will be finished at the end of December.

Truck 2014 Freightliner M2 106 4x4 crew cab. Custom deck from Truck Outfitters in Regina. The truck will be used for service truck on the farm and to pull a horse trailer.

9.0L engine
Allison transmission
Herd bumper
Rigid lights
Deck will be 8' with 3' toolboxes
compartment for chains
Webasto heater in toolbox
Air tank and reel
gooseneck ball
*considering a webasto in the truck to heat the coolant and interior

Trailer is a 48' gooseneck enclosed.
Generator slide out in gooseneck
propane tank slide out in gooseneck
3000w inverter
7k Triple axles
Insulated walls and ceiling
Eu3000is generator
couch
2 - 4x4' cabinets
Nudo Flooring
Midlevel deck
Roof raised 24"
Door raised 24"
3- 140AH interstate batteries
2- Suburban SF30k furnaces
8 6.5" JL audio speakers Marine

Alpine deck
putting a couch in it too.

Truck will look like this except a service body and polished aluminum bumper and wheels. Trailer will be a taller, longer and triple axles.

Old truck and trailer.

Wow, that should be quite the rig! Really surprised the trailer in the picture is only tandem axle?

Ya that trailer is probably 8000 lbs empty and probably has tandem 7000lb axles. My trailer will be 9000 lbs empty, probably 10,000 once I get everything installed.

That rig doesn't rank high on my practicality side, but oh does it get big numbers on the super cool side! Sweet!

Damn, you are the man! I have been thinking about one of those trucks, but a shorter trailer. I have a big house to build, first.

I can't see a problem. Won't be a problem when we are at Revy. The main lot at boulder has a lot of room and the hotel we stay at there was a large semi that parked in it's lot.

That's going to be one kick a$$ rig. Sub'd for pictures!

OhioMitch · Dec 8, 2013

Can you say UPGRADE!! That will be one sick rig.

Jaynelson · Dec 9, 2013

That is gnarly....wouldn't be able to park at any of the riding areas here unfortunately, but if there was room....that's like having your house pulling your garage :lol:

Would be a great post-ride party in that trailer!

That is a bad *** set-up!

Let us know how that truck does in snow. Seems like it could be a handful.

Make sure you post up pics once you have everything hooked up. That should be a sweet set-up!!!

It should be done early January, they don't start putting the deck on until the 2nd. Hahah maybe, my friends can only go on 1 trip this year and I would like to go on about 3.

Blk88GT · Dec 23, 2013

In all seriousness, look me up if you need someone to ride with! I'm always looking for riding buddies!
