Trucking In The 1980's (All my pictures)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ส.ค. 2024
- All these pictures were taken by me in the 1980's when I was a teenager. Some were taken while riding coast to coast with my Dad and others were taken around Brockton & Avon, Massachusetts. The photos quality has been decreasing over the last 30 plus years so I figured I better post them before they get worse! Feel free to share the video.
You put a smile on my face and a tear in my eye, oh what fun this used to be. Thanks
Happy to hear that.
Hello John how are you doing today
The good ol' days when steel bumpers, twin stacks & dual cans where cool to have. These days its painted plastic & fiberglass 🙁
And weed burners.
And dpf,egr,doc and the rest of the ba alphabet soup

@@jasondesouto919 The liberal alphabet, Def,Dpf,Egr,Tesla, CNN (Communist-National-Network)
To be fair, nobody thinks plastic is cool. There's just a perception that it's impractical to try and get out of it.
we had to grow up around the same time. dad was a driver and mom always said that I breathed, ate and slept trucks. the 70's and 80's were the best.
How old are you? I'm 50 next month. Great time to grow up in trucking, more videos are coming!
@@TheBostonTrucker
I'm 52. I spent every weekend cleaning and polishing trucks when I was growing up. My first truck memory was a dodge lvt1000 cabover.
@@soapboxgeezer4283 Incredible times to live to say the least 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Wish I could’ve been there! Well Atleast I have dad and everything grandpa told me, even though he is now in the sky! Might just buy me an Ole’ Freightliner FLC just to remember grandpa 👍
Hello how are you doing today
If only trucks still looked this cool today
No doubt!
They still do they where awesome back then and still are today.
Garbage 🗑️
Keep them old rigs rolling.
Hello Daniel how are you doing today
Awww the 80 the best time of my life
80s And 90s were the best trucking years. Them trucks all looked so good. I went to school next to a 4 lane highway where they did a study where at times over 600 trucks would pass thru town each hour. I would daze out the window all day watching them pass And loved listening to the glass shake as they rolled thru with the Jake brake on. Now all the trucks are plastic, And Jake's in town are long gone. The good old days.
Where did you grow up?
Awesome pictures! Again, what a time to be growing up into trucking. Old school looks and class but the era of big power too. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!
The mural in the late 70s and 80s were magnificent
Hello how are you doing today
Back in the good old days. Those were trucks. Thanks for taking me back I remember it well👍👍👍
Hello Raymond how are you doing today
watching this made my day, the cab over Brockway 5.36 is priceless!
I wish my old photos were in better condition. I'm glad you liked it. More to come!
I was born in the early 2000's, it sucks that I'm only able to see fewer classic rigs and cabovers and more newer trucks. I'd probably say the 80's and the 90's are the best decades because I was raised into those decades, I remember when my uncle used to drive an ol freightliner for coca cola when he was alive, those were thr good days.
1960s was a great decade too
I have memories from the 90s through pictures. I was born in the late 90s.... Boy.... My mom should’ve gave birth way earlier. These new times really suck..... And now the Green new deal these comies are signing in office..... It’s all bullshit. We gotta get the comies our before they completely destroy the Trucking industry and everything else........
I miss seeing trucks with those cool paint jobs and sweet pin stripping.
You'll notice the multi color paint is working its way back .
Love seeing the old rigs...when they were new, in style and fancied up, especially the cabovers! 🥰 You could tell a KW from a GMC ASTRO from a Freightliner, etc! Cabovers were popular back then and you would see them EVERYWHERE! 😎 The 80s were good days for trucking. Looking back, I really feel that the old trucks had MORE style and character! 🤩🇺🇸 I really love the cabovers, but they all were quite fascinating! God bless all of our truckers! I come from a trucking family and still have trucking in my blood! 😎 “Make the trip, but don’t forget to enjoy the ride” is my motto! 😎
Amen brother!

@@franceliakarle_1 good 😊 you?
Ah the Golden Age of Trucking That was back when I started in Toronto and southern Ontario in 1987. That was the era when big custom bunks and the Western Stars with their big bunks were just coming out. The Cat 3406A and 3406B were the favourite spec of almost all brokers. Lots of 359 Peterbilts, cabovers, Ford LTLs, Kenworth W900Bs, Freightliner FLC120s. Most reefers were the old narrow Thermo King Super NWDs with the Isuzu C201 2.0 liter diesel from the ‘70s and some Carrier Eagles. The wide Thermo King SBII reefers with the new Isuzu di 2.2L diesel were just coming out in the mid ‘80s to replace the Thermo King SBI with the C201. It’s competitor was the Carrier Thunderbird.
It was a different time and a different land, you did what you could to make a hand.
A lot of pride was in the industry back then.
Yes sir
Wtf happened 🤦♂️
@@Tyler-zw8bn read my reply to j&h tkng on Marco Ceccarelli post above. Might give a little insight but maybe not all of it
There still is, but its rarer than gold and usually only found in the "old timers" who actually are timeless people. Im only 30 and yet, this industry has me since I was old enough to comprehend my surroundings. Even if its tough now, Ill keep fighting for those days.
@@ancientsalt4291 I lived and grew up in old school of late 60s,70s,80s, and I drove from 80 till 2000 sold out(truck and trailer) and enjoyment was gone
Great photos! What a time to be alive...I was also born in the wrong generation but at least I got to see the very last mechanical engines and pre e-log trucks when they were new.
Hello Michael how are you doing today
Awesome pictures! Real drivers that could really truck and come home and pull the transmission out if need be . It’s a dying breed.
Yes exactly how it was.
Thank you. I’m 14 and been around trucks since I was 2. Go with my dad every spring break, summer break, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I wish I grew up in the 80s. Now I know what I was missin. Love the channel, keep it up👍🏻
Thank you! You're at a time where you will see lots of changes old to new.
Real trucks and real driver all gone forever ! Miss those days
Some still out driving even some if these trucks too.

Cracking photos! Reminding me of my childhood visits to the states in the late 80s!
Nice photos!
That GMC Astro behind the fence maneuvering in a yard just big enough for it.
Back in the time when cabovers were seen two to one over conventionals.
They sure were! Now they're head turners!
Wow what memories , I was 16 in 1979 and my dad drove a astro or titan 90 back then , been all over the Tennessee mnts area In it with him , Lord what memories I thought it was the biggest rig around . 40 years later after a driving career and cancer of my own good to stroll down that hwy again.......I hope heaven offers them memories again !!!

Excellent slideshow! You even managed to capture some famous trucks, like Tyrone Malone's Papa Truck and Boss Truck of America, and Blackie Skaggs KW Bullnose. I sure miss those days when cabovers ruled the highways!
The good ol days!
Hello 👋
How are you doing ??❤.
I grew up around trucks also starting back in the 70s. Unfortunately all the pictures I had we lost in a house fire in the 90s
For 6:44 I was a kid again, a kid in my 20s & 30s. I was back out on the big road and loving it. Thanks for the memories....
Hey ....thaaaank you soooo much...!!
I can look it hour after hour its amazing to see..!!
It remembers on a long gone Time where the „old shool“ was on the road,this shool of drivers who understand their job and have a passion to it.
Some of them are on the road anymore and it is a pleasure to talk to them.
I'm really happy you are enjoying my video!
Hello 👋
How are you doing ??❤.
Thank you for giving me a glimpse into what trucking in the 80s was like
Thanks for sharing this with us. I was just a wee lil thought in my parents mind at the time. Fighting to get back to those times.
Thank you sir you put a smile on my face and almost a tear in my eye . What a wonderful trip down memory lane , Still out here trying to hold on to it Every little bit I can ,Happy Trails Drivers

Hello 👋

Man those days were awesome I miss my old 1980 Mack rd6880
Brings back memories of the old Stony ridge truck stop in Toledo. In ground pool with grills going outside,the girls would put their bikinis on and serve beer out of the ice barrels,guys would bring steaks and watermelon .The bar would be rocking hard. Damn it it was awesome.
I spent some night at Stony Ridge at the bar.
I spent plenty of weekends at stony ridge if you didn't get there by a certain time on Friday evening you weren't going to find a spot to park that was a kick ass place to hangout
g k Yes, same here, Stoney Ridge at the T5! Sometimes roll out of there if it was overcrowded & head north up 280 to 75 & roll in the Detroiter 76 at the 32 yard line. What a beaut that place was, even after they put a fence around it. Good Day to You!
Many many many fun weekend there !!!! Haven’t been up that way since 2008.. the bar was there. Old hotel torn down but a newer one up. Didn’t stay long though.. looked like they backed a cattle truck up the back door and filled the bar up.. had some big ole mommas up in there... 😉😆😂
I started driving local and regional in 1977 and remember a lot of 1960s and 70s trucks (and a few older) still on the road then. The landscape really changed in the first half of the 1980s when many companies were put out of business due to deregulation.
Nice pics !
Great pictures of the 80’s. I personally ran with a few of those hands. Trade shows with the 3 Way gang was a blast. Keep on Truck’in.
That's really cool👋😁👍
I have to say that is one of the most complete collections of pictures representing the real workday trucks of that time period! Well done!!
Thank you 😊
Hello terry how are you doing today
Hello 👋
How are you doing ??❤.
Thanks, some cool pictures. I actually recognize some of those trucks/Drivers...I was driving for Global Van Lines and did a fair amount of Trade Show Exhibit hauling. The Mayflower w/ the "dollar bill corners" was Leroy Schimick, The dressed up Global unit at the beginning belonged to Jack Kisner. He won Global "driver of the year" so many times his jacket was held together by the patches. 3-Way Van Lines out of Sunnyvale, CA. had some great looking equipment. I loaded more than a few times out of Giltspur Exhibits too. We made more money then than is even possible to earn today. I could live off the fuel surcharges alone! I surely didn't feel "lucky" but I guess in some ways we were.
Thank you Andrew for your comment. Those were good times!
Hello Andrew how are you doing today
You know if those guys are still on the road today?
@@youngpatrick29 I just saw this....Those guys I mentioned have passed on. I'm sure there are a few others still kicking.

Thanks for the memories I was a young man in the 80's trucking for my father , hauled steel out of the Ohio valley.
Thanks Rusty
Rusty Brown Oh yes, we hauled steel out of the mills down by Mingo Junction & Steubenville, Ohio in the late 70’s & early 80’s with a 4070A Transtar, 238 with a 10spd. Loaded up the 40ft flatbed then head north up Rt11. Back then steel hauling was referred to as the “Greasy T-Shirt” kind of trucking. Good Day to You!
@@tierone4761 yep back when all the smoke coming from the mills that on a clear day it looked clouded over from Weirton, Steubenville, Mingo Junction, Martins Ferry, Wheeling up and down both sides of the river. Pretty much all gone now, that was the days of the Ohio valley.
Hello brown how are you doing today
@@franceliakarle_1 Still alive not kicking as hard as I used too, the COPD makes it hard to breathe at times, but I'm thankful I'm still above ground every day.
At 6:33 , orange and black Freightliner cabover, Day and Ross ( owned by McCain french fries) out of New Brunswick, Canada.
Great stuff ! The Bandag Bandit crew pulled in for fuel at the Texaco I worked at. I was probably 17 or 18 at the time. I still have those pictures. Love seeing how popular cabovers were.
Those were the good ol days they just didn't know it.
I remember going with my Dad in a Diamond Reo to Portland Maine in the 70s. Bench passenger seat wrapped in blankets. in the winter. He drove for Colfax shortening in Pawtucket Ri
I remember Colfax.
Hello James how are you doing today
Hello 👋
How are you doing ???.
I use to go with my ol man every summer, he had an old Mack, no a/c,no p/s, driver unload, and I freaking loved it! Late 80s
Awesome! love that Mack hat! I had a few back in those years (from Mack of Chicago) as my dad was a freight train employee he owned a R688st and a RL700.....my cousins drove them as brokers, I got to ride with them, man I wish I woulda took pictures!
Thats really cool.

The good old days. I was a mechanic for United Truck Leasing in Braintree in the 80's and these pictures brought back a lot of memories
I pulled plenty of trucks out of United in the late 80's.
Hello 👋
How are you doing ??❤.
Even though these are east coast trucks, they’re still cool. It’s always funny how each part of this great nation has its own ‘style’.
I bought a ‘87 Pete this year. What a project. I just barely got it to the 2019 GATS. It was the only Pete NOT shined, but it was the only one that could legally smoke. And it did. But, as with old people, it was left out of the videos made about the show. Even though there were cameras taping everything. Maybe next year.
I'd love to see your 359. I'm a big west coast truck fan but you're right about the different styles.

I come from a family of trucking i remember those days , Good video just subbed to u keep it coming 🇺🇸🚛👍
These are the guys that inspired me to be a trucker when I was a kid. Yeah yeah I'm a millennial and all that, but in the mid to late 90s these were the guys who would wave and honk their horns for me and make me realize that this would be a cool job to have. I'm 5 years in to it now and I don't regret a single day.
Reminds me of riding with my pops in that K100 aerodyne when there was still that feeling of brotherhood among truckers.
Good times!
Hello how are you doing today
watching my grandpa letting them jakes sing as i stood in front of the driveway watching him back up into yard, hopping out with the shades & hat on, smiling ear to ear… eventually getting to go OTR with him during the summer? being to green to know we were going down mountains with god knows how much weight behind us… just enjoying the ride! what a time
At .53 thats a bk Putnam truck out of Yakima or Bozeman my mother dispatched for them for years sarge was one of the nicest people to work for i have a shoe box full of this era of trucks I should sare thank you for the memory
Bozeman
I love the short hoods!!! You could really tell the difference. Pete's K-dubs Freightshakers,all had a very distinct look with the short hord conventionals! I liked the all metal hood and fender Freightliner better than the glass hood with the blended fenders and headlights.
Hello Tom how are you doing today
I started trucking in 1982 at 21 my first job was making many stops in NYC with Plymouth Rock ,The terminal was behind my brothers diesel shop that was at the truck stop on 440 in jersey city next to the driving range across from the projects ..
I remember that Jersey City yard, been there many times with my Dad. Brooklyn yard too right under the Kamakazee bridge.

@@jhtruckingcompanyllc9783 when I was still driving a friend of mines dad was highway patrol seargent here Ohio and said it started in 80s when government passed word out to each state of cracking down on trucking industry with DOT/PUCO/Weighbearers and speed because biggest industry in the world and majority of companies will pay fine instead of taking time to fight it.

BUD MEYER the company you worked for had some real nice trucks back then. Back in the 90's I pulled a hopper bottom for a while and would load at the Cargill plant in Lake City, Mn. next to the BUD MEYER terminal. They would let us drivers use their pay phone in their terminal. I think FOOD LINER might have taken over that terminal now.

I miss the late 80 early 90s
very cool pictures
I grew up in trucks in the 70s and my dad drove for old Owens-Illinois bottling for 18yrs and drove old early 70s International cabovers till they shut down then variety of trucks since then. He passed in 81 in accident hauling old slippery pipe that wiped out truck. His first truck he owned. 79 Pete conventional single bunk. Miss him and that truck. I learned in old 79 GMC General two-stick. Through the yrs drove old R model Mack then old Int Paystar(coal haulers) then newest and last I drove was my own. 95 379 Pete with all toys bells and goodies and marriage fell apart and got out of it and turn wrenches now.
Man I miss that truck.

👍 Good memories Master Trucker.
That black 1986 Freightliner with the 3 tone blue stripe,s belonged to Joe Sabo Trucking! from Scranton Pa. He had a bunch of them along with Peterbilt,s
RIP JOE,🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 He later sold them off and bought 10 OF the next generation of new Freightliner,s 5 Thunder & Lightning double bunk,s edition,s and 5 flatop,s all with 4 na¼ Caterpillar,s and 15over with 3.90 rear,s his truck,s where very shiny and powerful and fast and had every available option there was. Later the Company was renamed NRL. Transport.
I didn't know that.
Looking good brother
Thanks dude!
These are great pic's. I just watched another video you uploaded, trucking in the 70's. I'd of liked to see the full film, it looks like a documentary clip. I used to live in Boston. All through the 90's i was living in Southie & came home to Ireland in 98. Anyways, i do enjoy your channel. Tnx bud. [P.S. Did you ever hear from that crazy female that roamed the country with ye. She must have been special for you to skip back & forth across the country after her, lol. I'd love it if she was in the comments. I must go check now, lmao]
All the way over in Ireland! Wow! That's cool! Southie huh, does the Winter Hill gang ring a bell? No, I haven't from that girl again thank God!
I didn’t start driving until 94 when I got out of the Army but man we had some cool rides back then.
Early 90's were the best! Lots of 379s Petes, I drove them. I've got more videos coming from that era.

Lucky dog lol thanks for sharing brother
So cool to see them 359's when they were still relatively new. I'm lucky enough to own 4 of them and i treat them like their my children.
Brian Simons No doubt they were the “Classics” to say the least! In 1985 & 86, I ran a few different 359’s to the west coast hauling private owned & dealership used cars. They had the 63” walk in with the 119” BBC. My favorite had the “new” at the time 3406B with a 13spd & 355’s. Running out Rt40 west from Okie City to Barstow was absolutely the best part of the run. Used to see a lot of chicken haulers with large cars & most of them were 359’s with a KW here & there. Then some of them had the KT 450’s & 600’s that would give my Cat a run for the money. Those were the days for sure! Good Day to You!
359 Petes were my favorite to drive

Every time I see a cabover or a long nosed Pete, I like to think it’s the old generation telling the rest of us that they’re still here and they’re not gonna go away quietly.
