October 2017 | Overdrive | 59 Wanting to go with something new that stands out from the rest of the Fleenor Bros. fleet, Kyle Cousins decided to stick with the bright green on this 2017 Kenworth W900 Icon he bought from Fitzgerald Glider Kits. However, its striping was dark, so he had it restriped to make the bright green pop even more. Also, the cab lights and sleeper lights were shaved down, and flush bullet lights were installed. The interior matches the exterior, from the trim to the steering wheel. After taking a month off to get shined up for GATS, "Poison Ivy" went back to work for the Carthage, Missouri- based fleet, hauling explosives and oxidizers out of Kentucky to New England.
