"Miss Roma" AUTOCAR DC-10062 Diesel - 1942 Colorized
"MISS ROMA", of the Roma Wine Company fleet, was an AUTOCAR DC-10062-170 Diesel equipped with a tri-axle TRAILMOBILE semi-trailer mounted with a van body rated at 39,000 pounds gross capacity -- that's heavy!! But as smooth as the wine she delivered from California wineries at Fresno, Lodi, and Healdsburg was her heavy-duty performance....The post-war trend was apparent: BIGGER trucks for BIGGER payloads and even heavier hauling.
