Tom Riley of Chesapeake Bay, Md., drives this 2003 Peterbilt 379 equipped with a Caterpillar C12 and 10-speed transmission. Riley hauls agricultural lime for the Maryland Farm Bureau and others with the pictured ’08 Maximizer dump trailer. He owns and manages the eight-truck Riley Enterprises, which he started in 1989, and he’s kept his personal rig mostly stock.

Owner-operator Todd Scruggs has owned the truck since 2012, but it was inoperable from the time he bought until he started its rebuild in 2023. After working on the truck during his downtime over two years, the rebuild is complete and the truck is going back to work.
