Hi Thor . First off I’d like to say thank you for all the hard work you put into making these videos. I have watched every single one of them. The music is incredible and the color added is fantastic and the ladies a nice touch. I have a 1957 REO SLEEPER Cab Model A603D with the Cummins turbo diesel, single axle. An Arizona tractor and it is in excellent condition, no rust needs paint but i think I’ll just clear coat it and leave the patina. I have been looking online for pictures or info on this truck and it seems to be very very rare . I can’t find info or pictures of it anywhere . REO call the sleeper a bustle cab. Again thank you for your efforts and time putting these videos together. If you have a picture I’ll be looking forward to your next video..

If there's a truck with less than 200hp found somewhere, then there's a carrier that's willing to run the sh¡t out of it somewhere.

My daddy was a deputy sheriff and also ran a fuel stop on Rt 100 coming into Pearisburg VA in south West Virginia in the Appalachian mountains half a mile from the trail. My daddy had put me up in the cab at 2years old and at 15 I was driving a R77 Euclid haul truck which turned into over 50 years trucking driving all 48 in everything but a parking lot, never hauled cars. No I'm 71 shifting gears with 2 cains.

Rugged men for a rugged job, like my dad. These trucks were hard work to drive. Notice none of these guys are 300+ lbs!

The "wistful" or bittersweet thing about these wonderful pics, is knowing that all these proud drivers and vehicles are long gone now. But we have the pics to remember them by.

I agree. My dad drove a truck and taught me how. He's been gone 8 years now, but when we meet again, I hope to see him behind the wheel of a Mack. He always smiled when driving the company's brand new red Mack. See u soon dad.

6:48 Looks like its from a Life Magazine article dated June 1, 1959 about the Teamster's Union. I clipped it out and saved it for a while when I was about 12 YO. I really loved trucks when I was a kid.
