Awesome Mr Asian Mai show. I could listen to this fine gentlemen for hours back when trucking was full of commradary and drivers actually stopped and talked to one another in the truck stop aet together and helped each other on the side of the road. Would talk on the CB and actually give good feed back now a days everyone's on their own worst part is there's no respect and most guys have NO clue what they are doing.

In "82 I was in 5th grade . We went to visit my grandparents in Blackwell, OK. My grandpa took us to visit Clifford (when his shop was in Blackwell). I remember that hull of a cab, sitting on the concrete floor. Probably one of the many influences I could accredit (or blame lol) for my love of trucks/trucking. Two years ago, had a load into okc and stopped by to chat. I asked him about the bull nose I had seen as a kid. You could hear the disappointment in his voice when he said, "No..its gone". Glad to see it's back home where it belongs. A big wave of the hand to the Wilkins family from the Hoods.

@Moda Care I stayed at the Kings 8 whenever I was in Vegas in the late 70s early 80s. They had a guy in the parking lot that would polish your aluminum wheels and tanks for a very reasonable price. I actually won a lot of money at their crap table over the years. Trucking was still good back then.
