Where is everyone #5

When I was a kid I read that the Cugnot wagon was built for haulin' cannon balls for Napoleon during the French Revolution. Is that true @4mer trucker ? I don't see it mentioned now. But i haven't looked much.

 

Certainly hope that U younger Guys appreciate the Trucks us "older"Folks drove back in the day

Sure was humbling going up hills with the 4 ways flashing away and Goats were passing Ya on the Shoulder LMAO

 

My grand father started with a White Mustang. half track 250 gasser single axle and single axle trailer and would do 3 rounds a week of 30-40k steel from Stubbenville Ohio to Chicago IL. Swore you would wedge it wide open and get out and walk up the hill. Them men new how to work.

 

Hey @7-UP , I didnt forget you either, friend.

I took this shot for you, but I know you were ahead of the game from the days of this reefer madness setup, lol.

 

Hell I tried to give everyone something today, I even layed on the floor and tried to get shots of a 5x4 for @wore out! Now that's dedication boys....

 

My great great grandfather was skidding logs with a team of mule when he became a teamster. Later to buy a chain drive Mack to replace mules. 4 generations later now. I did learn to drive in a cabover freightliner with no power steering. And forget about ac.

 

Are you ok? do you need ems to help you up?

 

Dang @snowman_w900 youre having too much fun.

Ain’t gonna lie, I’m a little jealous.

Do ya think by the time we get to retirement time our rigs will be old enough we can just show em like that and the youngins will drool over em like that?

“Look son, this was way back before they even had EGR....”
