    One of the first trucks I drove was a GMC Astro. It felt like you would fall out of the windshield if you slammed on the brakes!

    Still ugly. I hate that body style.

    These were the last of the good Whites.

    The "Road Boss". Still used the old Autocar "Drivers Cab". Probably the best White, because it was mostly Autocar. Rough riding old horse, it was. My '82 Western Star had this cab too, although,, that truck was mostly a White.

    Yeah probably because you'd get bullet holes in the cabin....
