A
year ago we drove
away from Locklear
Chrysler Jeep Dodge
Ram in Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, in a brand
new, base-model Ram Truck 2500
SLT Crew Cab 4x4 diesel with the
intention of transforming it into a
dream truck for a land surveyor.
Now, 12 months and a lot of shop
time later, with the support of Mobil
Delvac and products from a num-
ber of aftermarket manufacturers,
Surveyor 1 is done.
During that time Surveyor 1 has
logged more than 10,000 miles
being driven to be displayed at
numerous events for Mobil Delvac,
including the National Truck &
Tractor Pulling Championship series
events in the Midwest; the Great
American Truck Show (GATS)/
ProPickup Truck Expo in Dallas;
and the Specialty Equipment Market
Association (SEMA) Show in Las
Vegas.
And by the time you read this,

Ram to The Work Truck Show and
50th Annual NTEA Convention in
