... June 14th, 1975 i was in Markham, Illinois at the KENWORTH dealer. The Sonny Pruitt truck was there; had my picture taken while i sat in the drivers seat. When i got home, my grandmother had passed away . The KENWORTH had a 903 V-8 Cummins engine. Started trucking in May, 1976, still out here ... .. ...... .. .

[@richardkaltenbach3961]

I Never Knew It Was A 903. I Always Thought It Was An NTC350 Or NTC400 Or Something Like That.

Yup, one of my favorite shows also as a kid. I was about 10 years old when this was on. I built lot of model cars as a kid, and I Remember building a model of this truck.. Also around the same time, CB radios were all the rage. I have to say if I could go back and be a kid again , I would certainly do it. Good memories for sure.

[@KevinWhite-eu1pd]

I used to watch this when I was a kid . My step-dad drove for Reichmann out of Alhambra Illinois back then . He drove a 1968 Autocar then . This show and my step-dad is why I wanted to be a trucker . I started when I was 18 September 1983 still trucking I'm 58 now be 59 this year . Now I drive for Bullfrog. Drove for Big R . This is my second time driving for Bullfrog . I drove for some of the Best Companies on the road

Everyone in my family drives truck, myself included. This was a great TV series. I never missed an episode I was just a kid when it was on television. Still trucking and will keep on movin on.

[@sonnypruitttrucking]

That’s very cool, you could be your own Movin’ On TV Series haha :) Lucky you.

[@ryanmcintyre7888]

@@sonnypruitttrucking trucking has been very good to me . Not only has it given me everything I have, but provided everyone else with everything they have or need. Thank you for bringing back a good memory of the 70's

[@billvet6]

I was driving over the road when this show was on and only saw a few back then. Glad I just stumbled on them here.

[@johnlennon8653]

In my teens watching this show. , and fifty years later I’m still driving truck and watching the replays that influenced me. Three semis I have at work, the old 1979 Kenworth is my favourite and the most reliable, built in the same year as I started driving.

[@the_lost_navigator]

Marilyn certainly Hassett... A good ol show, thanks for the upload, Admin.

[@bobpierce115]

GREAT series from the mid-'70s. It was made for intelligent people that could pay attention to the story, and to details. It would/could NEVER be made today, just for those reasons alone.

[@tennphil]

Attention to the details made this show very realistic 👌

[@sheldonhchambliss1385]

One of my favorite TV shows

[@woodlandwonders6887]

If this was produced today, Will and Sonny would be in a bromance driving an electric truck hauling solar panels.

[@rickysig]

My uncle used to talk about this show when I was a kid and I didn’t know what he meant. Now almost 50 years later I see.

How About B.J. MacKAY? And His Best Friend BEAR? He Never Hauled A Load To Stay Ahead Of The Repo Man. I Betcha They Had A Thing For That Red KENWORTH K-100 AERODYNE VIT CABOVER! ANOTHER SWEET RIDE!!

[@six-pack1332]

Back then, this was one of my favorite shows. I was 14. My friend Jimmy and I were going to be truckers. As kids, we were both heavily influenced by the show. I'm a trucker. I moved away and I have no idea what ever happened to Jimmy.

[@tennphil]

My best friend was named Jimmy. we made a pack to drive trucks across the USA, back in 74, we never made it he's gone now. I'm in my 60s. I miss my best friend 😢

[@domherbin8562]

Holy crap ! Here it is ! I loved that Tv séries when I was a kid 😎 I Wanted to become a truck driver but US truck like this one that we never saw here in France in the 70’s . In French the title of the show was L’aventure est au bout de la route You know what I mean So thanks guy to share it I appreciate 😎👍

[@OldTrucker958]

This show is why I became a mechanic and truck driver. Years later I hauled cement tankers and had a KW just like this but it was red. Loved that truck! 400 NTC and a 13 speed

[@richardkaltenbach3961]

My Uncle Bill Sergeant (RIP) Had 1973 KENWORTH WIDENOSE CONVENTIONAL And 1971 WHITE FREIGHTLINER COE! Both Had 1693 CATERPILLAR And Spicer 5X4 Twinstick!

[@katedaphne4495]

Was your a big Mac truck?

[@skyedog24]

Every kid 9 through 12 years old was drawing trucks at this time.😊

[@sonnypruitttrucking]

Haha, that’s true! You just reminded me about drawing trucks myself :)

[@skyedog24]

In 1973 and 74 we would go out to my friend's dad's Ford F-250 with a construction rack he was a concrete construction man. In that pick up it was like the most awesome world it had optional air conditioning that was down below the dash, he had a CB radio that really worked set 📐 up swr , the only mobile telephone that we of would get on the CB radio & "the mobile " and make prank calls a few times 🙄 .. For quite a few years a good majority of people in our town had CB radios you would communicate that way quite often and apparently as night went on the more people got on the CB too.

[@sonnypruitttrucking]

@@skyedog24 wow that sounds fun! Never used a real cb radio before. Sounds kinda cool like a community chat room :)

[@husq48]

We all had CB's back in the 70's!

[@1SFOD]

I still watch it occasionally.

[@TheSaturnV]

In '75 or so one of the Pruitt Kenworths was on display in OKC at a shopping center called Windsor Hills Mall. Like others here they let me hop up in the sleeper and behind the wheel for some photos. Makes a little kid feel 10 feet tall. Wasn't long before AMT came out with the Movin' On model kit and I bought it from that same mall, either at the hobby shop or the ol' TG&Y. I looked it up and there were only 4 Kenworths used in filming the show, maybe I sat in the one starring in this episode?!

[@sonnypruitttrucking]

Wow what a great story! I think I might have had the model but I was so young and I always ruined the windows glueing them in lol

[@joseacosta524]
