Owner Brad Piesch started out his septic service business by rejuvenating a white 1993 Kenworth T800 with a 3,800-gallon steel tank and Masport pump built out by Engle Fabrication. The truck is powered by a Cummins engine tied to a 10-speed Eaton transmission. Piesch freshened the truck with new Alcoa aluminum wheels up front and powder-coat white drive wheels, had the tank repainted by LaRue Brothers and added graphics by Signs of Times. He added a drop axle and had FMI Truck Sales & Service add a new 3-inch valve on the rear for backflushing, in addition to another 3-inch inlet and a 5-inch dump valve. Also new are LED running lights, heated mirrors and chrome accents. Valves have heated collars. The truck also features two sight glasses, a stainless steel toolbox, top and rear manways, Garmin GPS, power windows and AC. Piesch drives the truck, used mainly for residential septic service.
