Or a Wasp? Everyone always forgets the Hornets less powerful brother.
I didn't remember the Wasp.
They were built in 52 so I read.
Always liked the Brockway husky hood ornament.Way back in the last century the UPS F model Maxidyne Macks had gold bulldogs. Guess how long they lasted?
Those Yankee Fords were ok until you got termites in your door frames.
Yes, but who else got to drive around all day with a woodie?
First truck I ever rode in was a Brockway with my stepfather...my grandfather used to pick them up for his employer in Cortland, NY....
There was a line in an Eddie Raven song, "Money was made to spend". I will not take one dime with me when I leave here. I figure the less I leave will be be that much less for my creditors & relatives to fight over. A man older & wiser once told me we will all have regrets but one thing we will not regret is having fun. To quote a line from another song, this one by Ray Price, " I'd rather be sorry for something I've done than for something that I didn't do.

I have learned a wealth of knowledge by listening to older people who have experienced life. Most have lived simple lives and their advice is also simple. People with high IQ's are not always wise.My long gone uncle used to say "there are no pockets in caskets."

ABF has been running then since 1988. The gold bulldog Macks are known as Pedigree Macks. You are correct they are Mack everything. Most LTL Macks did not have Mack transmissions till autoshift. ABF ran Fuller transmissions back then. Autoshift forever changed the trucking industry.

In my younger days if you bought a new Mack in Charlotte they gave you this ashtray.
One of my dad's customers gave him this years ago.
It stayed around his shop for years before I brought it home.
The Plymouth Fury and the Belvedere's and Coronets
They started distributing the Freightliners into the city we got 2The new trucks have radios. I wonder how long they will last before they get destroyed?
All those years I ran the road dragging around a big old radio box and antennas. Now all you need is a phone and a little Bluetooth speaker that you can carry around in your pocket. And now they get radios in the trucks?The new trucks have radios. I wonder how long they will last before they get destroyed?
