Moving tanks with single and double ended semi tractors (push-pull units for the heavy tanks)

Renard Daimler Road Train - built for the world road transport market in the early 1900's

This probably qualifies as the first ever semi tractor trailer.

Cool and unusual trucks found on Big Lorry Blog

An older semi in Brazil, and I like the grill, full length and looking like a 1940's car design

Cool.

Looks like the back wheels also steer

Looks like water cannons on top, and armor covering the back

This and the last photo in this gallery are both 4 wheels under the cab.

It seems similar to an F.A.R. http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/01/three-wheeled-tractor-trailer-rig.html but definitly not similar to the Scammell or the Tempo, so it seems there might have been another 3 wheel delivery that I haven't learned about yet.

Mighty powerful little trailer mover

Yuck, very ugly, but does it have this design because that allows it to go under the trailers for reversing the trailer into a loading dock?

Best advertising on a trailer rig I've seen in a while

I didn't expect to find a drag racing semi at SEMA

Trucking used for advertising, quite an unusual collection from Caradisiac

Bantams above and below, so small they can probably only be described as "cute"

I just learned that semi tractors race up Pikes Peak ( I already knew that almost everything else races there)

Ever get your vehicle stuck while just pulling out of your driveway or parking lot?
