Description
On the 24th of September I attended the 18th Annual Historic Commercial Vehicle show at Gatton QLDApart from meeting with a lot of great people I have met through my volunteer position at the Queensland Transport Museum I shot over 770 photos on the day of rather impressive rigs on display.
Here we see a rig my US watchers will be more familiar with than the long lines of Aussie Bulldogs. A well turned out Peterbilt

Wow, another one, like I said these have got to be rare sights to see down there seeing that most of the trucks down there are Macks, Kenworths, Freightliners, and other Euro and Japanese brands.

yeah, Peterbilts are hard to find here

They're real common here in the U.S. and Canada, the second most popular brand would be a Kenworth.

Here Kenworth dominate with their K100 series of COE rigs

Oh wow, they don't even build COE type trucks anymore here in the U.S., partly due to their fuel efficiency and aerodynamics. A COE cab truck is about as aerodynamic as a billboard.

well, with the way they measure truck length here it is better to run a cab over than a conventional rig

Yeah, the United States lifted a lot of their length of rig laws, the only law now is that the rigs can not weigh more than 40 tons fully loaded.
