Josh and Katie Roberts, owner of Josh Roberts Trucking in Rome, Ga., run this 2014 Peterbilt 389 Fitzgerald glider. Nicknamed the “Green Monster,” the truck is powered by a 550-horsepower Detroit, a 13-speed and 3:42 rears. It has custom green lights on the breathers and above the tanks, along with eight-inch stacks. The custom work done to the truck came from ideas of the owners and the truck’s driver, Tim Gresham.
