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:

Jim,
Does the 9600 have a VW logo in the front?

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?" :lol:

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.

I think I can remember a joint venture with MAN?

Saw this nice Mercury M series (badged M 47) today. Not sure of the exact year...'50? Sorry for the poor quality photo, but you get the idea. I may return tomorrow to get a better pic.

There were VW branded trucks in the European Truck Racing Championship.

Good looking truck, too.

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.
