Pennsylvania Trucker Erik Shaw was one of many drivers who put their truck on display at the Truck Meet At The Crossroads in California, Missouri this past May.  Erik has been driving since 1988, logging over 7 million miles in his career. His 2015 Kenworth T660 has a 525 hp Cummins  ISX engine with an 18 speed Eaton transmission and 3:43 rears.

Erik bought the truck, which used to be an enclosed car carrier, in 2021.  The sleeper has a shower and bathroom as well as a microwave/convection oven.  Erik does LTL refrigerated work with his 2017 Great Dane Reefer Trailer. His wife Lisa sometimes drives with him.

Erik has known John and Karen Rissler since their trucking days and purchased all of his chrome from Horse and Buggy Accessories.  Erik sends a thank-you out to DK Gram Truck Repair for keeping the truck on the road, and to  Jimmy Ferrell for the customizations.
