    I grew up in that house! all four of my grandparents were "old school" German,spoke it when they did'nt want us to know what they were saying! i get most of it,but wish i too had a better understanding of it.....................................Mark

    I would think so! most supermarkets in the northeast are still set up for 40's and 45's pulled by single axles,there is an "ACME" market in a neighboring town near where i lived in Jersey that is ABSOULTELY unchanged from the 1950's! looks really "out of place" to anyone but longtime residents..................................Mark

    I agree with Al on the dates for the last western R-Models,and i think most of them did stay in the western states,when i was growing up it was a real rarity to see one here on the east coast,the ones i did see were usually just passing through from the west or mid-west.When i ordered my MH in 1988,a Valueliner is what i wanted,but they were no longer taking orders,it was dealer stock only and i could'nt find one anywhere with a sleeper on it,or a wheelbase long enough to add one..........................Mark

    Jim,my condolences on the new truck!,on a serious note, (well not really) my neighbor has just bought a Sterling tri-axle dumptruck,unsure what year,but he asked me to look at it after he got it home,the question was the location of the block heater plug-in i looked all over in the usual places and did'nt see it anywhere. Thought maybe since you've driven one you might have an idea? i cant seem to locate any tech info on the interweb concerning "modern" Sterlings...............................Mark
