    The sound of this truck brings back childhood memories of when I was growing up in Africa in the late 80s early 90s. Everyday around 5.30pm there was a truck we could hear from the main road which was about 4 miles away. Sounded exactly like this one. Always brought a smile on my face.

      Mangwanani / ndiMatsheloni Tafadzwa. Same story a couple of years back on Cedar Rd. Near Chartwell, Johannesburg, except at around 05:30. Never needed an alarm clock! It was a 8T71T powered Peterbilt horse pulling a brick trailer.

    I'm a driver myself...been drivin 26 yrs, since I was 15..I'm no rookie. My first rig I ever drove was a Mack. My uncle was a logger and he put me in the driver seat at 15 on the red dirt roads. Taught myself how to float the gears. Now I'm 50. I've been driving rigs longer than 26 yrs but didn't start to get serious about it until I was 26 or 27. Went into the army drove rigs there (88 mike). I trained most of my squad...you know newbies E- nothins all the way up to buck privates and E'4's. Drove fuel tankers mostly. Also was 82nd airborne paratrooper. Served in 9/11 Afghanistan. When I got out that's when I decided to get my CDL. And have loved it since. My wife loves it to. I've been with my beautiful wife since 90', since she was 15, we've got 2 awesome boys. And I told them I don't want to ever hear about them driving no rig. They are to smart for that I want the best for my boys. They are too good for that. I'm a proud dad and can die a happy man

    i spent a lot of my childhood on a farm around Johannesburg. the house itself was about half a kilometre from the road, which was one of the busier roads since it leads directly into Vereeniging. anyway, i have many memories of trucks that sound exactly like this blasting by at all hours of the night. i now live in a relatively rural part of Mexico, right by the only road connecting the two largest cities in the region. my house is very close to the road, and at night you’ll hear a truck with busted ass mufflers going down the hill every five minutes. it’s startling, but happy memories of childhood

    Great job on the twin sticks Mr Driver.
    I learned on a old B model Mack Thermo Dyne with twin sticks. Hated that truck while I was driving her. 40 years latter, I miss that old girl. She wasn't the "bell of the ball" anymore, but she'd work herself to death everyday.
