      The rusty old truck in Mad Max was an old Auto Car. I don't know if Auto Cars are built anymore. Another old timer is Marmon. White was around until Volvo bought them out to get in the American market. But you really have an old truck if you have an FMC. Not GMC it was FMC.

    I remember being on a road trip from CO to WA. when I was going through oregon on some of those nice curvy highways I passed a semi truck going like 90 on the inside of a corner. I kept hauling through there, (not going too fast since I didn't know the road) and the semi kept up with me pretty much the whole time. he was probably listening to this song

    In North American trucking slang, a "gear jammer" is a term used to refer to a truck driver. The term comes from the act of shifting gears in a manual transmission truck. It is often used in a lighthearted or affectionate manner within the trucking community.

    Had a 470 Mack 18 RR, early days IH AACO 9RR 903 Cummins. Heavy loads you had to be alert and drive it like you hate it. Love gettin' the foot down and into it. Even the N10 16 speed with the splitter and the 2 stick Diamond T was a lot of fun. I drove the latest trucks with big horsepower and all the comforts but not the same. Nice song for coming off Cunninghams Gap.
