Re: Trucks Are Beautiful

We've been skipping over White throughout this thread. They don't seem to get a lot of respect they deserve. They kind of became the cheap fleet truck poster child, dime a dozen nothin' special. AND, a zillion of them out there! They were also the symbol of the big dog buying up other companies, up until they became the one bought. Well, Australian had a fondness for Whites not seen much in the US, some here did doll a truck or two up, but mostly I really enjoy seeing the old cheap fleet dime a dozen Whites wearing the now extinct trucking company livery. I also always had a soft spot for the White Mustangs. When I was a kid in the '60s I knew trucks a bit. I would see one a say, "Look, there's a White Mustang", and the other kids for scan all around and say, "Where? I don't see any Mustangs". Then I'd say, "That orange one. Allied Moving Co"

Not all 4000s were named Mustangs. I'm not sure how that went
