Zach Ziolko
Zach Ziolko is a driver for Ligonier Construction, owned by Dave Herrholtz. Zach drives a Peterbilt 389 hauling construction equipment and an occasional tank.
We caught up to Zach at Conneaut, Ohio where he was delivering a M4ASE8 (Easy 8) Sherman tank for the annual Conneaut D-Day Reenactment. The tank, owned by John Tippins, was hauled from Ligonier, Pennsylvania to Conneaut, Ohio. The tank was driven by Al Kose during the reenactment. The Sherman tank tipped the scales at 77,000 pounds, putting Zach at 129,000 pounds gross.
Zach drives a 2017 Peterbilt 389 with a C15 550 hp CAT and an 18 speed transmission. The truck has 3:91 rears. The truck was customized by Kevin Montgomery at Morocco Welding. It pulls a 2025 Talbert 55 SA.
Zach lives in Pennsylvania with his sons Tanner and Brooks. Zach gives credit and thanks for his sweet ride and love of trucking to Kevin Montgomery, Dave Herrholtz, Heidi, Bryan Berkibile and his Mom and Dad.
