Description
Here's several different versions of what is basically the same vehicle: The Peterbilt 379, the semi-truck used to depict Optimus Prime's vehicle mode in the live-action transformers movies I grew up with. It's outdated however as the reference pics I used for the Peterbilt 379 were...well, probably not based on an actual Peterbilt 379. At the very least, it didn't match the exact kind used for Optimus, which had a lengthened hood, rear wheel caps and a sleeper cab.You're probably wondering what these other 3 freaky trucks are, so I'll explain from right-to-left (since I only realize now that I should've positioned these trucks left-to-right before rendering this image.) Btw, these are REAL LIFE vehicles I bumped into and decided to make models of. You can see what the real ones look like if you look up their names (be sure to specify they're semi-trucks)
Anyway, the heavy-duty dark red one covered in all kinds of bits and pieces and has no trailer is the show-truck called Thor 24, which was customized from a regular Peterbilt to use two 12 cylinder engines lines up to give this beast over SEVEN TIMES the amount of horsepower that comes from regular Peterbilts.
The black semi truck and trailer next to that is the Midnight Rider, a regular black sleeper Peterbilt carrying the longest limousine sleeper cab ever. Yup, it's not just a semi-truck version of a limousine, but the BIGGEST limousine semi truck and heaviest limo ever built, and the only ever limo that's got more than one floor (it's 2 stories tall)
Lastly, the red giant at the far right (and ironically enough happens to be driven by a MAGA fan) is known as...well, it's just straight up called "The Red Giant". It's the longest semi-truck and cab ever, at a whopping 93 feet long (Over 28.3 meters)
