Ive never seen anything like that either....but, just a thought, what if the trailor is just one very wide trailor with two king pins. That wouldnt make it to difficult for two trucks to coordinate the starts, stops, turns etc.

It is a fake... If you look at the passenger window of both big rigs, they have the exact shape light reflection (the diagnal white lines), across their passenger door windows... The truck to the left would block such a similar reproduction to the truck on the right considering the length of shadow created, and angle of the sunlight (looking at both trucks from a "head on" point of view)...

Also anyone can do a simply cut, paste of whatever they want to add to a photo, and also a simple cut, to delete something from a photo with either photo shop, or some other image software... But, it is an interesting image... :wink:

Those white lines appear to be mirror bracket supports. The shadow cast across the brackets are at slightly different locations which would result in the fact that the two trucks lean away from one another because of the crown of the road.

The reflection of the cab running lights are slightly different on the chrome sun visor over the windshield.

The truck on the right has a difference in the swinging panel beneath the bumper than the one on the left.

The mirror reflection on the two front bumpers are different.

The truck on the right has a reflection above it's right side headlight against the side of it's hood below the Peterbilt emblem.

The rightside fuel tank of the truck on the right is less shiney than the truck on the left.

The light shadow is different on both driver side mirrors.

The shadow under both rigs right side fuel tanks are different.

How come I feel like a phorensic scientist? :P

not fake

Fakes are really easy to figure out if you put it in a good photo editing tool like Photoshop, enlarge it to the pixel level, then look at the edges. Which I did. Its NOT manipulated.

Amazing how the non-drivers here cannot fathom in their wee little minds that this is possible.....

If this is a fake, it's an outstanding one. I don't think anyone could ever actually be that bored.

Or how they got the reflection of the grass on the left trucks bumper, but only on the left corner of the right truck.
