      Amen, I’d take a old truck over a new one any day. I drove a old r model Mack when I was 20, I’m 28 now, and that truck never broke down😂it wasn’t a powerhouse by any means and I didn’t have a/c but I felt cool driving a old school truck. Now at my current employer I have a 2019 Pete with all the emissions on it and we’ve had problems with it. Getting ready to get me a 07 international with a 550 cat in it! Beyond ready!

    Been a while since I have seen this truck! It is the limited edition KW. I remember when these trucks came out. There was a conventional and a cab over. As long as he has had that ride there is no reason to change now! This man is a perfect example of what a truck driver is. The youngsters of today could learn a lot from a man such as this.

      It is pretty plain that you know nothing of trucks or truck drivers! I drove for 35 years and most that I have known (males) have named their trucks with a woman’s name. Even some women have female names for their trucks. What makes you think that conventional trucks are male? I have driven a few of them and all of mine were named after a woman!
