This is the last of the trucks I took. There were more but time out n about the field was too short

Spent enough nights in a Commer cab with one of them, don't need to hear any more. But I do think it was a shame they were not developed more there was a lot of potential there that was lost, vested interests might have been protecting their patch I think

 

Kraft foods at Allansford Vic had a fleet.
used to head for Melbourne early evening.
Our farm was some miles across a valley from the Princes Hwy at Panmure. Could hear them back through the gears up the school hill there on a clear night. Much louder than the video.
Poor drivers sitting on top of that most of the night, hearing damage???
