Now, the Mack trucking company has a museum and heritage center in the Mack Customer Center in Allentown Pennsylvania http://www.macktrucks.com/assets/mack/Bulldog/BulldogMagazine2011Volume1.pdf page 3
“It gives us a powerful way to immerse customers from North America and around the world in the products, history and culture of the Mack brand.” said Mike Reardon, Mack vice president, marketing.
Created inside the company’s former engineering development and test center, the Mack Customer Center includes a product showroom, an 18,000-square-foot modification center and a two-lane, .73 mile oval track, allowing customers to put their vehicles to the test. The track has multiple grades, on- and off-road durability courses and a skid pad.
Inside, customers can relax, meet and work in a comfortable reception area or at the “Bulldog Café.” The new facility also houses the Mack Museum and Heritage Center, which will open to the public beginning November 1, 2010. http://www.macktrucks.com/default.aspx?pageid=5094

Most primitive of the mechanized flatbed tractor trailers, a 1910 Studebaker

Looks too unwieldy to be safe, maybe it's that the size of the car is as big in profile as the truck

I've never posted a photo of a sanitation tanker truck before, but these clever ads and slogans are too funny not to pass on

Made me laugh
Really great look, I don't think I've seen a steering wheel like this before
before the Garmin, early primitive man had a MAP! This mounted clip board seems to be function and utility for a rally 
great collection!
The shifter know instead of the normal handle is a cool touch, the white walled red rims with beauty rings are damn good looking too

This probably qualifies as the first ever semi tractor trailer.
