George Babcock drives this 2016 Kenworth W900 glider owned by Cedar Hill Trucking out of Selkirk, N.Y. Sitting on a 300-inch wheelbase, the rig sports a 1999-model 550-hp Cat with an Eaton-Fuller 18-speed. Most of the custom work to the truck was done in the company’s shop, including all welding and metal fabrication. The truck features a 24-inch chrome bumper with a flip kit, 12-Gauge Customs mirror brackets, strapless air cleaners, 8-inch Dynaflex straight stacks, carbon fiber individual rear fenders, stainless steel battery box and tool box, polished stainless intake tubes and radiator tubes and more. Cedar Hill hauls a variety of freight, but Babcock says this particular combination hauls sand, stone, dirt, mulch and compost.
