Thanks for the comments.

One of the things the owner told me that I neglected to put in my original post is that the truck has 8 lug wheels vs 10 lug that many/most trucks have.

Anyone know the difference? What is on most semi-tractors? Any advantage one over the other? Is an 8 lug wheel an indication that the axle capacity is smaller than the 10 lug?

Thanks!
