I thought I'd post a few pictures I was sent by another truck photo collector. I didn't take the pictures; I don't know where they were taken, when they were taken or even who took them!
I thought it might be fun to see if anyone can identify the truck or location.
Who knows; it might even be your truck in the photo.
So here goes.......

I have been told that hanging the placards in front of the radiator will interfere with air flow to the charge air cooler. Any truth to that as a winter front cuts down on air flow also.

It shouldn't hurt it unless it is a small engine or running close to the gross. If the outside ambient temprature is high, I would consider taking them off. Especially in the southwest. In the winter they would probably help. Monitoring temp gauge on a regular basis will guide you as to leave them, or take them off. Variances in 5 to 10 degrees would direct my decisions.

The Sterling looks identical to the repo that was at Freightliner of Knoxville. They had this or a simular truck on their website. I think they wanted $85,000 and I believe it had fairly low miles.

8,000 miles??????

Certainly didn't take them long to crash.
The information I had was the team ran it for 5 weeks.
8,000 miles over 5 weeks. No wonder they turned it in.
What a complete waste of time and resources.

Since I didn't intend this to be a kick FedEx session:
What about this one?
