Autoliterate 2018 Truck of the Year!

Alex Emond photograph©2018
This 1941 Dodge 1-ton pickup was still in business as a Saskatchewan grainer, 76 years later. More photos on the truck here. Thanks to Alex Emond for a stunning set of photographs.
Runner-up was another...Dodge of the same era. Stephen Hendrickson spotted this one on the new Tappan Zee Bridge in New York. The truck was on a trailer though you wouldn't dare call it a trailer queen. It will probably be on its own steam by this Spring.
