Over the last 35 years or so I've driven about all of them from Macks to Pete's. Owned 4 different trucks a 377 Pete, old GMC/Volvo, CH613 Mack, and 379 Pete. The Makc spent more time in the hospital then on the road. The volvo had more electrical problems than were fixable. The Pete's I still have and drive the 379. Would like to get the 377 back on the road under a grain trailer or dump. Both are the best rucks I've owned. Both have cats in them to. The old hill sniffers were just that and fall flat on their face with a gofer hill to go over. Never liked the Cummins with the rubber drive shaft on most of them I drove. The Penske 60 series was still a gutless wonder when I was in one. Running up I77 in WV if you didn't cross the hollows about 75-80 it was dragging up the next hill. Sure was a dragon & fly truck. All had from 9 spds to 18spds with a couple of 2 sticks in a few. One had a 4 spd auto in it. Was nice for NYC or Chicago. Other wise was no big deal. When I bought the Pete I priced a Mack,Volvo,Freight shaker and The Pete the Pete was the cheapest with the most engine and trans. Has 3.55s with the 18and tall 24's specs at triple digit though I have never had it close to that. Both trucks have over a million miles on them. Will probably die with them. Would like to find for a reasonable price a Pete 359 with the 3408 in it. Probably could not afford to fix it if it ever came to that though.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
