From DCP's Level 2 line of 1/64 trucks, this is the Bully Dog Peterbilt Model 387 with Kentucky Dropdeck Trailer.

Item #33100

The tractor and trailer together measure 13.5 inches long, 1.625 inches wide, and 2.75 inches tall.
The diecast tractor and trailer both have some impressive features.  Let's check out the tractor first. 

It is nicely painted in red and black with authentic Bully Dog graphics on both sides and on top of the cab.
The tractor has a steerable front axle along with realistic tread on the tires.

If you look closely, you can see that the drive wheels have a different type of hub detailing than the non-drive wheels.
The cab has clear windows to easily view the detailed interior which has several nice features including: gray bucket seats with arm rests, a detailed dash, and a nicely modeled steering wheel.

It also has realistically replicated windshield wipers, mirrors, antennas, steps with non-slip tread, and grab bars.

The hood ornament and the textured grill (with the Peterbilt logo in the center) are exquisitely replicated to mirror the real Peterbilt Model 387.
The back of the tractor has coiled air hoses, a tilting fifth wheel, mufflers, and exhaust pipes.

The very tail-end of the tractor is decked out with mud flaps, as well as painted taillights and reflectors.
The Kentucky Dropdeck Trailer has some great features of its own including skylights on the trailer roof for easy visibility inside the trailer.

In addition, it features belly boxes underneath, just like a real moving van style trailer.

Authentic Bully Dog graphics are located all around the trailer including both sides and the trailer doors.
Both of the trailer doors open to reveal the detailed interior including the textured walls.  If you look closely, you can see the "No Smoking" signage right inside the doors on the walls. 

It also features an extendable rear rack with painted taillights for additional storage, in case you run out of room on the interior of the trailer.
Looking inside the drop deck trailer from this angle, you can see the wood-grain flooring extending the full length of the trailer.   
The rear of the trailer is decked out with a metal rack underneath for even more additional storage.  

The chrome-like hubs include bolt detailing, and the rubber-like tires have realistic tread patterns that add to the authenticity of this model.
The chassis of both the tractor and trailer is impeccably detailed.  The tractor has engine detailing within the casting along with realistic differentials and drive lines. In addition, the tractor and trailer showcase air break chambers on their tandem axles.  
 
With DCP's incredible detail and great authenticity, this Bully Dog diecast metal truck will stand out in any collection.
