Past Features

Paul Rudd of Reliable Distributors runs this twin steer Kenworth Aerodyne and Bradley Gallagher has the envious job of piloting it around the North Island. With the cab sporting the Booths Transport Ltd livery, sharp murals, lots of shiny stainless and great looking Curtains this truck is a looker!

The truck is a K104B from Kenworth Australia and features the Load Share front suspension which according to Bradley makes for a smooth ride. His previous ride was an 8x4 Argosy in Reliable Distributors colours. Under the cab is a CAT C15 550hp engine coupled to an 18 speed manual transmission.

Bradley's normal run takes him from Auckland down to Palmerston North ending up in Wellington. Down the island he hauls brick and Gib board which is the contracted work for Booths Transport Ltd and up the island he hauls normally timber for Reliable Distributors. The truck pulls a Jackson Enterprises made trailer and the great looking curtains were finished by TCC Solutions.

The Kenworth wears factory black paint finished off by spectacular blue striping and flag murals applied by Advanced Panelbeaters & Painters Ltd of Palmerston North. Noticeable fittings are the stainless visor, twin side mounted exhausts, twin stainless air scoops as well as other stainless fittings on the cab. Inside, the cab is complete with Burgundy Trim, a wood grain steering wheel and LCD TV.

From Rod's great photos it's easy to see that Bradley is very happy with the new ride and keeps the big Kenny in immaculate condition. Thanks to Bradley for his time and if you're on the road between Auckland and Wellington keep an eye out for him and his "Significant Other".
