Shannon Crenshaw works for JD Specialized Transport, a privately owned company in Sapulpa, OK. He drives a 2013 Peterbilt 389 Glider Kit running on a Caterpillar 6NZ with a 2013 53′ Great Dane Flatbed. It has 700 HP, 3.55 gears, 18 speed, and 326 wheelbase.
Ryan Woods drives a 2000 Peterbilt 379 with a Cat 3406 engine. 600HP, 13 speed, 326 wheelbase and a 2014 53′ Great Dane flatbed.
Shannon has been in the trucking industry for his whole life. Like most truckers, he comes from a line of truckers in his family. His father owned a trucking company so he says he was “born and bred into it, [I] wouldn’t want to do anything else”.
