A great salute to the great drivers and their trucks

[@joshuaphillips9810]

I remember seeing alot of these trucks on "THE BIG ROADS" as a kid and late at night listening to WWL "THE ROAD GANG" out of New Orleans. While traveling for the holidays. My grandfather's C.B. handle was "The Big Fish"

[@jamesjansen8386]

AH YES, air starters, wedge brakes, tilt cabs without hydraulic assistance, turned up governors and no log books, I CAN SMELL AND HEAR IT NOW !!!!!

[@danhuttinger5040]

I love those old trucks thanks for the great VIDEOS

[@jimbob7613]

Was cool when they wore the hats. And uniforms. Shows pride in what they did.

[@manuelmello7192]

Watching this sure does remind me of my father. I drove too, but not until the 70’s

[@stephensheard2662]

At 3:23 the single axle cornbiner with sanders for winter traction was cool

[@dabigkahunacatfish2992]

Wow, seeing that 1/2 cab truck and trailer brought back some memories. l use to drive a few 1/2 cab mixers, now that is something. All you need to remember is put your left knee on the white line on the road and your in the middle of your lane. lt's quite an experience driving along in a phone both with a seat and steering wheel.

[@chriscusick6890]

I never heard of the left knee trick. Thanks

[@dabigkahunacatfish2992]

@@chriscusick6890 Yeah the first time l drove one my boss just bought a used one, so on the way home he was in front of me and he kept pointing at the road (the line), of course l had no idea what he ment. After we got in he said "l thought you were going to wipe out a dozen parked cars and mail boxes with your right side". That is how l learned, lol. BTW, l never hit anything, Thank God.

[@hoosierpete]

Look ho w clean cut and fit the drivers were back then, because they had pride, and they took pride in what they did.

I remember the Canadian Freightways CF. Believe it was consolidated fright in the USA. They had a huge terminal in Fort St John, northern British Columbia Canada. They ran from there to the Yukon on the original Alaska Highway. That was in the 60's / and 70's '/ some of the 80's. Green Freightliners

Back in the 70s all the way to when I retired in 21, if i was going to be just driving all day or night or a couple of days id wear comfortable slippers of something. If i got out of the truck to do anything other then fuel or eat then I put my boots on

[@alexkuteron5775]

Green dodge was super cool 😎

[@danhuttinger5040]

My step dad was a truck driver in the old days he wore pants shirt and boots no flip flops for those guys and that is true of me also I drove truck myself for awhile.

[@timhahn2428]

We’re was the diner in the last pictured located?

[@woohu2u2]

My father in law drove for CF. He worked out of the Oakland, CA. yard.

[@chriscusick6890]

This is habit forming!

[@robertbrouillette6767]

Where is Campbells 66 Express

[@MrShobar]

"Halfcab" at 3:40

[@terrymatlock916]

I wonder if those drivers back then wore flip flops and drove automatics

[@johnwithelder7013]

Probably 220 Cummins and 12 speed spicer no flip flops.

[@johnpapa8681]

Terry- and had a phone permanently glued to the side of their head!!!

[@americanmuscleup2497]

No they just snorted meth and no doze don’t act like old school drivers were not just as full of shit just didn’t shit lol 😂

[@gmac8852]

Good thing not many of them heaps still on the road . Good for show not good for moving freight. Started out 1974 fleetstar 2000 ended 2020 Peterbilt .

[@conspiracyscholor7866]

Hard work is what makes strong men. The country has enough fancy trucks on the road but an obvious shortage of strong men.

[@pabloescobar7802]

Thing has like 8 license plates

[@markcofer602]

Along came deregulation that gave every truck driver today their trade. Along came EPA making the grass very brown , CDL making the driver more knowledgeable, ELD making the driver not heroes of the highway but hellions of the highway. Those days are long past gone. The driver today couldn't handle those days.

[@ignaciotravieso7484]

Sorry ,but the Freightliner in green and grey isnt pretty , is a uglly semitruck .
