rsxse240 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Hey guys, I need to know what trucks Love's Truck Stop used before they went to the current Freightliner. I bought a RM Snap together Mack with the fuel tanker and want to build the trailer as a Love's truck. Also, where can I find some better wheels and tires for 1:35 American semi-trucks and trailers?

Fabrux Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Love's has been using Freightliner for a while, have seen pictures of Columbias and Centuries. Nowadays they also use Pete 579s and Volvos in addition to the short and long hood Cascadias. So I'm sure a Mack R wouldn't be out of place.

rsxse240 Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I mean, I don't really ever build for historical accuracy, just for what I love. The thing I love about the Love's Fuel Trucks is the paint job/colors. I am also going to go to Basket Market again and get one or two more of these and do a Flying-J and maybe modify one to make one to resemble a local fuel transport company that runs a bunch of these rolling custom truck shows. Thanks for your input, Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabrux Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I did an image search for old Love'stankers and couldn't find much. Surprisingly a bunch of Flying J tankers showed up; they didn't look as good back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
