Never heard of it either. Does anyone else refer to the 24 ft container trucks as the 'Hun"? Maybe that's only local.
If you get in front of it, it will mash ya.Where does the name "masher" that we call the largest package car come from?
We had two of those old Ford C 600 tilt cabs.They were hand-me-downs from the NYC furniture operation.When I first started driving, it was an old Ford tiltcab 24 footer that had a funny looking air dam mounted over the cab. It was a Feeder Department hand-me-down. City van 40003 was nick-named "Darth Vader".
