All Peterbilt Recalls

AVCO Disposal #3840

Well, nice to see another new (to me, of course) truck in my area!

When I heard the roar of the truck, I mistakenly thought this was 1233, I still thought that, until I saw this for myself and noticed the cab. This is my first 310, up close and personal.

Also, apologies for the finger in the way. must have gotten too excited to take the pictures.
