They had C-15 CAT's, 18 speed Eaton trans, 46000 pound rears, duel line wet kits, and American Class interiors.

This 378 was ordered by Day & Night Trucking, but unfortunately they went out of business before they could buy the truck.	This 379 had about every option you could get on a Peterbilt. It was only on the lot about a week before it was shipped to another dealership. I've never seen it again.	This is the Day & Night truck repainted for Bulldog Earthmoving from Elgin IL.
