Peterbilt 379 w/ 40′ Gooseneck Container Chassis
The Peterbilt 379 is a model line of Class 8 trucks that was produced by the Peterbilt division of PACCAR from 1987 to 2007. Serving as the successor to the 359, the 379 was a conventional-cab truck configured primarily for highway use, serving as the flagship of the Peterbilt model line. During much of its production, the 379 was popular among owner-operator drivers. In line with the Kenworth W900, the 379 serves as a popular basis for truck customization.
This is a Peterbilt 379 hauling 40′ high cube container on a 40′ gooseneck container chassis (based on Cheetah Chassis[www.cheetahchassis.com]). Simple but effective, the 40’ gooseneck container chassis is capable of hauling a 40’ ISO container with a GVWR of 65,000 lbs. This model is the workhorse standard of chassis fleets throughout the United States.
There are 4 container version: 1 HCRF and 3 HCDC. One container for each industry type. The containers are from North America region: Container Applications International (Agri), Cronos (Oil), GE SeaCo (Ore), and Linea Mexicana (Wood). Using sub-meshes, the trailer will turn into a empty one when it unloads all its load and returns to facility.

So I made this since no one has made NA container trailer yet and for me, it’s kinda strange seeing people using tri-axle EU trailers for North American build.
Well, let me know if you encounter any issue with the truck and I will try to fix it..
