Follow me through my days of being a truck driver. I drive a car carrier working for 15 dealerships.

Rock On Kenworth Trike In March 2008 a machine like no other started to take shape in the Rock On Repair Shop. A wild and crazy idea was starting to be taken seriously. The Rock On Trike started its life out as a 1988 Kenworth dump truck, stripped of parts and neglected through out its usage, there wasnt much left for a work truck. The cab, dump box, engine, axles and related components were removed. The frame was modified and strengthened for its new design. Key features to keep were air ride, air brakes and to keep the old hood. The Cummin's 350 Big Cam IV engine boast a whopping 400hp, putting it to the wheels through the Power Components clutch and Eaton 9spd transmission. For Kick's two polished beer kegs double as air tank's and an actual set of train horn's warns on lookers to move out of the way! This machine rides like a Cadillac on its air suspension and turn's on a dime with its one wheel power steering. Setup with a towing hitch to pull a modified sleeper, and Jake brakes for additional braking power. A chopped hood and custom grille enclose the engine while a stainless steel spoiler keeps the wheels planted to the ground. The Rock On Trike is a serious machine and has already been used for events such as the St. Joseph, MN 4th of July Parade and Chili Feast.

Enjoying the (possibly) last snow in Calgary with a temp of -4 in 28 April. Not usual. Then, filming on my return from Vancouver (eastbound) on Trans-Canada. Enjoy.
