Leonard Duval, owner of Duval Trucking LLC from Malone, NY runs his 2012 Peterbilt 386 with a 2016 Great Dane Freedom XT flatbed. The rig is powered by a 565 horse ISX Cummins. Leonard has customized the interior of the truck by painting the dash and doors red, a red steering wheel and a 42 inch shifter. After trucking for 28 years the extra lights and all the chrome are a must have for Leonard, who is from NY and goes by Western Bandit on the CB. He got his CB handle from a race horse his father-in-law used to race over 25 years ago.
