Sterlingfan Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I recently joined the HMVF - thank you for the ad! While I am not specifically interested in Military Vehicles I am very interested in heavy trucks specifically the US built Sterling. Sterling built a number of vehicles for the military such as the DDS150, DDS225, DDS235 (all 6 x 6 double reduction shaft driven and gasoline powered) as well as the HCS330 heavy wrecker (6 x 4 dual chain driven and gasoline powered) and I am very much a fan of them. Also like other heavy types including other US manufacturers, UK and European vehicles but know less about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean N Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Welcome. Something that always intrigues me is why US heavy truck manufacturers stuck with chain drive long after makers outside the US had abandoned it. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
