Nice looking truck.

What does your hopper look like right now? I'd say don't paint it to match...personal experience, all our trailers are painted to match and when we pull one with a different tractor it looks really friggin' stupid. -

It is white. We are thinking about just getting a black one for this truck and putting the white one on our freightshaker. -

It kind of depends, if thats the only truck thats going to pull it, obsolutly! But all black would still be a great choice.

Beautiful truck by the way. Need to get those pictures bigger! Anything done to the interior? -

man I'd love to have a truck just like that!

Truck looks awesome!

I think matching trailers are awesome but only if the matching trailer only gets pulled by the one truck. I'd paint it for sure unless you have more than one truck that will pull the trailer. -
