Tim Pulli's 2006 Peterbilt 379 EXHD: A flattop tanker yanker

Feb 10, 2023

Tim Pulli owns this 2006 Peterbilt 379 EXHD, powered by an Acert Cat with an 18-speed. The rig pulls a 5,000-gallon 2011 Wilson water tanker. He had the truck's engine rebuilt in 2021 at Exodus Diesel in Mooresville, North Carolina. In 2022, he had custom fenders put on the tanker that match the body work done in 2022 on the truck at Dickerson Custom Trucks in Thorntown, Indiana, where they removed the whole chassis and overhauled the under belly of the truck. He originally bought the truck in 2012.
