    I bet not a single one of those trucks is governed at 62mph, none of the drivers are wearing flip flops and dirty sweatpants, and they all weighed under 400 lbs...

    John,

    Where'd you find the old International Transport pictures? One of my drivers is a big enthusiast of old cab overs. He's restored two old IT trucks and shows them.

    These pictures remind me of dad and grandpa pulling up to the house...Dads been driving over 30 years, grandpa started trucking in 1960 and gave it up in 2008...The stubborn ####### finally retired. Ive been in some old trucks and theres just nothing like them.
