Semi-Trucks of the 1950s: A Photo Gallery
After WWII Americans were anxious to re-stoke the economy
after a long "make-do with what you have" dry spell. By the
1950s new highways were being built, new trucking
companies were being formed and old ones revived.
Americans were buying newly-styled cars and the latest
technologies once again. Semi-trucks helped pave the way
for this huge growth spurt in America with dependable trucks
built by Mack, GMC, Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, International,
White Freightliner, Peterbilt, Kenworth, Diamond T, Reo,
Autocar, Brockway, Sterling and others, many using the
increasingly popular diesel engines made by Buda,
Hercules, Waukesha, and Cummins, which helped their
heavy loads haul quicker. Ron Adams portrays this booming
era with over 300 superb photos of trucks hauling cement,
fuel, and a variety of goods to enthusiastic Americans.

GMC Light-Duty Trucks: An Enthusiast's Reference
Appealing to both historians and enthusiasts GMC Light Duty
Trucks is a chronological overview of the popular General
Motors vehicles that have been long considered Pontiacs
trucks. It begins by tracing their roots to the year 1902 and
origins as the long-departed Rapid and Reliance brands. The
story continues with the pair joining an emergent General
Motors and 1912 consolidation as GMC. The book concludes
by summarizing the past three decades when a broadening
diversity of added models-sport utilities, diesels, full-size and
mini vans, multi-purpose vehicles, and compact and mid-size
pickups contributed to a massive growth in customer
acceptance.
