[@bradh7472]

Wow you don't find these trucks often anymore! They were built in Richardson, TX not really far from where I live and I believe it was 91 when the official last truck left the factory. Navistar took the plant over and ran there for decades building the sever duty trucks and some military trucks. It too closed a hand full of years ago. A guy who drove for us bought a new one around this time and I believe he said he got one of the last ones that was left. Very interesting trucks and too bad there so hard to keep up with parts. I think they look really nice. Marmon's customization process killed them because they couldn't build in mass quantities like the big guys do.

[@JamesPretty]

Ya it’s sad. I’ve read they are the Rolls Royce of semi trucks. It is very nice under the dust and dirt. Appreciate ya Brad
