Prior to the 1970s, when length laws were written to allow longer configurations to run on the national interstate highway system, you would only see a lot of these trucks west of the Mississippi. Configurations such as the Rocky Mountain Double were not allowed in many states.

The big truck is a dominant feature in our modern society. Alexander Winston sold his first horseless semi-truck 1899 and in 1913 Maine was the first state to limit the wight of trucks on its roads, to 18,000 pounds and that becane a norm. There are abt 4.06 million semi-trucks operating in the USA. The payload is abt 42,000 and 48,000 on the usual semi-trailer, meaning the trailer fleet can move abt 170,520 million pounds around. Add to this all the special big trucks. 8.4 million people are employed in the trucking industry, 3.54 million are truck drivers, excluding the self-employed (2022). Follow the big trucks and their loads in pictures and short comments. We honor this great industry on 4th of July and Labor Day and hope you will enjoy our selection of photos.

In the early days, many trucking companies started out with one truck or even some horses, and a few tough folks kept hauling through the Great Depression and WWII. As roads improved, many of these companies became large operations with ample semi-trucks, trailers and places to haul. This book is a concise history of the pioneers in trucking and how they grew their truck empires. From the east coast to the west coast, most of the companies started out very small regionally and with acquisitions and mergers became the big names in trucking hauling all over America. Each company includes a history, maps of their truck lines and a photo or more of their fleet or rigs they used at an epochal point in their history. Ron Adams has been collecting truck literature and photographing trucks for over 40 years and has a vast knowledge of the trucking industry and has made a name for himself in truck books.
