Eric Roadales, also known as Nitroade Hauler, is a hauler and member of the Nitroade racing team. Serving as a Piston Cup transporter, he is painted entirely black, and has the Nitroade logo printed on his "cap", as well as the number 28 printed on his sides. His trailer is also painted black, and has several sports decals printed on it, including the number 28, the Nitroade logo, and the word, "Racing".

His job is to transport Aiken Axler and his supplies to the circuits that are hosting all of his Piston Cup races in the United States. He prefers to drive quietly and carefully, so that Axler can practice his Tai Rod meditation.[1]

History[]

While Eric himself does not appear in Cars, his trailer appears in the hauler lanes at the Motor Speedway of the South, as Lightning McQueen makes his way over to Mack, and later when Mack and McQueen are exiting the speedway.
