Custom Rigs ReadeR Rigs 52 | Overdrive | May 2016 Saluting Vietnam veterans Marty Meyer, a 40-plus-year trucking veteran from Rancho Cordova, Calif., drives this 2013 Kenworth T660 owned by TW Transport of Chaney, Wash., pulling a reefer in western and southern states. The truck has a 450-hp Cummins 1800 with 3:55 rears. Each year, Meyer, a Vietnam veteran, is given the opportunity to pull "The Wall That Heals" for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. Guilty Pleasure Jeff Bencic of Murfreesboro, Tenn., drives this 2014 Peterbilt 388 to haul new and used cars with a Cottrell headrack and trailer for Continental Transport of Brighton, Colo. The truck has a Cummins with a slight tune modification and a Fass fuel system, an 18-speed Eaton and 3:08 rears. Bencic added the 20-inch Texas box bumper and Rockwood cus- tom grille on the front, J&J front and rear blinker bars, cab and sleeper lights, air cleaner lights and axle cov- ers. He calls the truck "Guilty Pleasure" because while he feels guilty for being away from home and his family, he gets pleasure from driving it across the country.
