David Larson says: Chevrolet car carriers like this were common not only in the USA but also in Canada. This one is hauling a load of imported cars.

David Larson says: Traffic jams became common in the borderlands of war-torn eastern Europe during the 90's, as refugees fleeing violence passed heavy convoys of military equipment and relief trucks. On the Kosovo border, this Oshkosh M1070 seems to have bitten off more than it could chew in heavy traffic.

David Larson says: Navistar-International 9800s in France, where American trucks were once somewhat common.

David Larson says: American trucks became more common in Eastern Europe as the cold war tensions thawed and the ageing Soviet trucks couldn't keep up with transport demands. This GMC Brigadier sports local bodywork but seems to be otherwise be a direct US import.

David Larson says: A very heavily customized Freightliner Century in Russia. Being a neighbor of the US, Russian custom trucks draw heavy inspiration from those in America, although this amazing build is a quite a step above.

David Larson says: Heavy traffic in Russia finds this Peterbilt 379 dump truck stuck in the middle of it. A bit overloaded, which is not uncommon for Russian dump trucks.

David Larson says: Peterbilt 359 pulling a spread-axle tanker in Finland. Northern Europe, with its generous length laws, plays host to unique combinations such as this.

David Larson says: The Freightliner FLD and Classic XL are common in Russia, although these examples are much nicer than most.

David Larson says: Max Marmon was one among a handful of names that Marmon chose to apply to their export models. Only found in Australia, Max Marmons received a lot of press attention but few were sold. This one works as a produce hauler when it's not at truck shows.

David Larson says: DeSoto continued building trucks until 2015. The AS950 Super was assembled for the Turkish market and the design was badge-engineered across three Stellantis trademarks.
