What would you call it?

Before you jump the gun and blurt out 'GP30' take a close look then come up with a name for it. Keep it clean.

The only six axle diesel with that short a wheelbase that I know of is the SDL-39.
So......without further ado.....I present, SDL30-1

Hey! you did say "keep it clean". 2285_

I only know what I know, and I don't understand very much of it, either.

I've decided on GD30J. I didn't come up with that all on my own. It was based on many suggestions from this forum and about ten other forums that I considered. The name stands for General Duty model 30 rebuilt by Jeff.
