DRIVERS FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF TRUCKING (Season 2)

Had a neighbor who drove for CF. He brought the truck home sometimes and he taught me how to drive and shift gears...as a ten year old. Couldn't do that today. Never did any trucking, but always admired the old timers. I keep an old truck with a stick for Sunday drives. Once shifting gears is in the blood, can't ever give it up.

It was guys like these who taught me the ropes in 80, they were the driver's from the 40s,50s60s and 70s, they were no nonsense hard worker's a lot of veterans from WW2, Korea and Vietnam who drove the old rides with no luxuries we enjoy now, and I wanted to be just like them, so i kept mouth shut and my ears open, and they scared the crap out of a young18 year old newbie, I think some of them even knew were Hoffa was buried, but I survived bought my first ride in 86 and I'm still trucking, they were stern but excellent teachers.

I'm glad I caught the last few years of real truckin, before cell phones and GPS. We had cobra 29s with maybe a good external speaker and tuned up for better radius from the CB shop. Maps were a must. Never saw a flip flop until late 90s.

[@cemartin]

Brave truckers like these, riding inside of cabins like spartanic cans without any comfort, gps-navi, AC and even power steering; at night inmidst rain or coldness always helping themselves or others solving technical problems -- all these never whined but gave all they could for filling stores, making economy running and improving our lifes. Let us be grateful 🙏👍

[@poorlittlebiker6476]

Im a greyhound driver, and i joined as soon as they “fluffed up” the uniform. No more hat, or vest, though you still have slacks, a button up, tie, and blazer. For footwear, I personally wear black cowboy boots (pointed toes of course). The buses are automatic and while I’ve never driven a manual CMV, I’ve operated manual transmissions on motorcycles so I know the concept lol. I use the GPS on my phone because unlike any paper map or my knowledge of the road, it Can detect traffic jams and detour me while en route before I get to the jam. Also, being a bus driver, we do have access to route guides, which in short is basically a paper gps giving turn by turn directions. I’d imagine it’s different when you’re s trucker going to different warehouses and stores all the time compared to bus driving where you will eventually learn all the stops you go to.

They were a far cry from many of the truck drivers on the roads in the area I live in today.

Pulled off Hwy 66 between Ludlow and Amboy CA in my RV a few decades ago and got stuck in soft soil. Found a couple old railroad ties from the nearby Sante Fe railroad and jacked up the RV to place them under the rear wheels but it would require several jackings to get back on firm ground and since it was getting dark decided to stop until morning. There was no traffic until 3 semi rigs with loads passed at night. Subsequently found they were outside the law on time and wanted to get home so were avoiding the Interstate. After awhile one of the winch bed tractors returned sans container and trailer and the driver offered his help. He said the same thing happened to him one time in the area and figured he could run the winch cable out and use it to pull us. He backed towards the RV until I called out that he was starting to sink but thankfully he was close enough for me to drag the cable the rest of the way. All went well for a few seconds until the swaged cable end on the drum failed. Now he would not be able to load his container. Fortunately, I had a sledgehammer among my tools and climbed on to the very greasy lift bed to reattach the cable end. The cable end was cylindrical and almost 5" in diameter. I continuously rolled the assembly and beat on it with the sledge until satisfied it would hold. At this point I advised we load his container which was a few miles down the road. and give up on pulling me out. He drove like hell returning to load while I enjoyed his tales of the road. The container was loaded with no issues while my fingers were crossed for good luck. We then attached the trailer and he drove me on to Ludlow to hire a wrecker. So, a trucker came to my rescue and put in a lot of effort, dropping his loads and returning. He had a good nature and laughed easily even when the cable came apart. I handed him a $100 bill in Ludlow to buy him and his waiting compadres a meal. $100 was worth more 30 years ago. While riding with the wrecker out of Ludlow returning to the RV, we ran out of gas a few hundred feet from my RV, something had gone awry with the gauge. At this point he called his sleeping wife to bring a 5 gallon can of gas to us, after which he successfully pulled me out with his cable winch. What a long and strange but memorable night.

Great video

[@alexclement7221]

3:00: I think this pic may be my godfather. He worked for P.I.E. out of the Denver depot in the mid 60's, running a relay over the mountains to Utah, where he met up with an L.A. based driver and they switched loads. He always wore a uniform, with a hat and a tie. I believe their trucks back then were 6cyl Detroits with a 6 x 4 transmission (very popular in the mountains). This was also before the Eisenhower tunnel opened up, so your typical run in the winter meant hanging iron probably 2 or 3 times each trip.
