OK you truckers...

I would love to see one of these in the wild...

Would love to see one still in use, but keeping that rarity in Operation while making a living should be pretty unlikely.
 
Usually pundits talking about truck driving issues have their head stuck up their *** and miss the mark by a mile. This guy kinda nails it tho...

Opinion | The Trouble With Trucking

Many truck drivers are paid on a per-mile basis, which means that some of them earn less than the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour....
All these new hires can't do the math until they have been out 6 mo. and the bulb clicks on.

A co. will advertise 5000 mi. a week and 45 cents a mile. Do you know how many hrs. IN the seat you have to have to rack up 5k miles?
Let alone how many hours you're handcuffed to the job when not turning the wheel...

"...plus 35 dollars per stop...."
Uhhhh... How about when the warehouse makes you wait 5 hrs. to start unloading?

You take a picture every time you fill up, don't you?:rofl::thumbsup:


Another member here said, "I never get tired of seeing pictures of my car." You certainly have the same mindset, and that's awesome.

Scott, if I make it down to the truck show...I'm taking 2 video cameras and 2 phones to take photos/video until the memory or batteries are shot.

I haven't pulled out my Minolta(remember that brand?) SLR for decades...:lol:I have all the black and white darkroom equipment that went extinct once digital was released.

My dad has a room for a dark room, but it's filled with ****. A bunch of it. Too bad as I was on a photo kick when he planned it.
 
Developing Service is still available in my hometown, you may have to wait a week longer than in the earlier years.
