- Part 2 of footage I filmed between the early and mid 90's at the Petro off exit 104 of I-95. Some of the footage is great, some is just ok. I hope you enjoy watching this as much as I do, definitely takes me back to times when things were much easier! Enjoy!

Man those old units is what made me become a professional driver started in 1999 and me and my ol 379 still getting groceries praise God for his mercy and favor
This is so surreal to me, Me and my grandpa would stop there for fuel when I was a little and kid, and it has changed a little bit since then, but seeing all those 379s, 359s, and w900s just makes me want to go back in time to that era
You and me both!
Some good history there glad you documented it . Side doors a thing of the past.
Proud to say I started in 1977 and by the grace of God been trucking through it all. Started in a Pete 352 probably gonna Finnish in a Pete 379. Those we’re the days my friend we thought they’d never end. Coast to Coast.
Man those were some times. Pay was still decent. Real restaurants in truck stops. Phones in the booths. Fuel was cheap and hammer down in the large car. It was a different world out there. CB chatter was fun. CB was the lifeline.
Oh yeah! Chicken lights and shiny wheels.❤
Man..... This brings back memories! I used to stop at the 104 all the time. Mostly the Loves truck stop. There was a great CB shop there too, guy was outstanding! Still running the same Galaxy radio I bought there and had tuned.
Man, just those good times you don't want to end.
Love it, back when trucking was still great! Miss those long hoods with the classic paint schemes. I doubt anyone will look back 100 years from now at the generic white, slope-nosed automatics of today and consider them classics. I'm glad you taped these and shared them!
In my opinion the early 2000s is the last decade that will have trucks that are consider classics. The only newer truck that might would be consider a classic is the Peterbilt 389
Coronado, classic xl, western star 4900s, international eagles, and lone stars
Great video run through that area all the time it’s crazy to see how busy it was just in the 90s compared to now I remember you could get some good food around there from a couple of places
Greatest old trucking video out there! You were way ahead of the times!
Old C-Line had a ride for this generation. Lots and lots of nice trucks but that one just kinda jumped out at me. Great seeing these old videos. Thanks for all you do⭐🇺🇸🐘
Good days now past. Really neat that there were those who filmed that era. Best!!
I-65 into Tennessee there is a truckstop off exit 6, next door is an abandoned nudie bar, I heard man crazy stories about the days when it was open
Used to be my home truck stop!
Saw several trucks I used to see up and down 95 in the 90s. Even saw Round Man's Freightshaker in there. Whoop whoop!
Looks like one of Spooners old Petes. Cool video
Great stuff !!
Awesome Steve 😎 🇺🇸
Good ol days
Used to be some hippies in an old bus in the Pilot that would shine up the aluminum lol.. wow great memories there.....
Back when the country was strong! are the good times really over for good!
Just your common highway trucks were show truck beauts. Large car central
I hear the Jersey boys
Wonder where some of those old units are now 🤔
The yellow 359 in my thumbnail is still on the road working, its maroon/red now. We featured it back in 2002 in our online magazine and hopefully will have an updated feature soon.
I wish trucking would go back to the way it used to be when drivers us their CB Radios. You did not have to deal with all the emissions crap, back when fuel was cheap and back when most fleets ran the long nose trucks
Where is this ?and where is the 717.im in australia and love this footage.
This was filmed in Ruther Glen Virginia, not far from where I grew up. The 717 is a phone area code here in Pennsylvania where I live now.
@@LargeCarMag awesome thanks,love it.
Jerky boy's in the background made an outstanding video better
I was wondering if someone would catch that!
Great videos. Please keep up the fantastic work.
@@johnarena1179 Their tearing the ass outta me
I almost forgot what real trucks look like
Of course cabovers are normal in the 80’s and the 90’s
Trucks today sucks! These new ugly automatics souless aerodynamics trucks 🥱🤢🤢🤮
I know man these new trucks are not pretty at all the old 379s and flds and cabovers was the real deal
It's funny because every conpany driver and person I know riding in those new trucks all dream of being in a long nose man, big power under the hood, manual transmission not that gay automatic junk. Man, what has happened to America. I dreamed of better stuff then this when I was a kid. Never thought I'd see the white house with a gay rainbow flag hanging from it.....
