Truck Pix... post yours

Born there, raised there learned to truck from there
Why I’ve lived in Pennsylvania for the last 35 years lol

 

You wouldn’t recognize what it’s become @‘Olhand not for the better.

 

You know the fella up on top of the mountain with the green 379's.
The I-4 corridor was my main LTL pedal when I drove for him. I don't know how I did it every week. Too dumb to know any better I guess.

 

Wish that was true…most of my family spread across central fl
I’ve witnessed most of the destruction

 

Lifelong resident myself, citrus and Marion counties. Grew up in Inverness, sad to see what became of that, all my childhood memory spots are gone for Starbucks, chipotle, you name it!

 

Any of you guys have old trucking photos, 90’s era trucks? I’m the only one in my family to truck, had an uncle I didn’t really know that ran out of the port in Jersey, I remember as a kid riding through wildwood and knowing this is what I’d be doing when I grew up.

I’ve always had an admiration for the guys that did it in the early years, Lester Coggins was a big outfit near me and they ran small bunk FLD’s all over this country, can you imagine the new breed of steering wheel holder having that for comfort on the road? A mattress and a drivers seat, no google maps, nothing, load and go and go home a month later, they don’t make them like that anymore, like the old school guys that post in this thread, I’m 22 years in but you guys just did it different back then.

 

He's brave id say , those measuring stick ladders i dont trust , lots of leverage on those small coggs.

 

Home for the weekend headed to Vermont for whenever I get there.

 

'bout the only good thing left in NYS, other than me, is the diners..

 

This is a glider my Dad built in the 80’s. Pic was taken at what is now the Joplin Petro. You can see the water tower in background. Same truck after it was sold then brought back home.
Course these are all pictures of pictures if that makes sense. My best attempt tryin to keep the dream alive out by Valentine Nebraska.
