This 1998 Freightliner FLB cabover is owned by Barry “Bear” LaFrance out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Powered by a 525-hp Cummins N14 with a 13-speed and 3:73 rears, the truck is used on a dedicated run hauling open deck freight from Winnipeg to Minneapolis. LaFrance and his wife, Tracy, have owned the truck since December 2000, and have added a number of custom features, including brackets for the side boxes, deck plate, fenders, visor, back window and breathers, as well as a custom dash and hardwood floors in the interior.
