Jim B Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) Ok, so I didn't actually see these recently, but here is a 1993 International 9600 that was being used to haul the carnival rides for last years Oz-stravaganza here in Chittenango, NY. The driver told me it used to be a Wal-Mart rig: This is a 1937 Ford that was in town back in 2011: As was this 1954 Chevrolet: Edited May 23, 2015 by Jim B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Jim, Does the 9600 have a VW logo in the front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Yes, it does. The driver told me he put it there as a joke. He tells people that it's a VW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Yes, it does. The driver told me he put it there as a joke. He tells people that it's a VW. I wonder how many people have seen that and then said "Gee, I didn't know VW made trucks that big?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Quite a few, apparently. Trucker humor, I guess. Didn't VW make a COE at one time? I seem to remember seeing pics of it. Maybe it was just a prototype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relic_Models Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I think I can remember a joint venture with MAN? There were VW branded trucks in the European Truck Racing Championship. Good looking truck, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne swayze Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Saw this nice Mercury M series (badged M 47) today. Not sure of the exact year...'50?

Jim B Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 So, is anyone in the market for a 2006 Peterbilt 379? I've seen this sitting one the sire of the road for a while, but I finally managed to get some pics today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 An 06 with a 3406E? It must've been a glider or somebody is confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
