Makes you wonder how a truck from Olean survived and made it to Idaho.

Maybe it got used as a moving van once it was sold from the company? Hard to saypintoplumber wrote: ↑Sat. Jan. 02, 2021 8:46 amMakes you wonder how a truck from Olean survived and made it to Idaho.

Yep, many people bought those big rigs years ago just to move with. Rental stuff likely didnt exist. i know theres a truck my Dad sold that was going to Alaska almost 50 years ago, following a farm tractor slowly hauling more... imagine that drive! lol 100 miles a day more/less. Maybe 200 if they were long days.
