Trucking Vietnam style
Resting up next to a Freightliner.
A relic from the Vietnam War on the freeway south of Ho Chi Minh City.
Dongfeng on general freight duty.
Some things are the same the world over — a busy box port.
Vietnamese truckies wear fluoro strips too.
Old International Eagle on container duty.
An International ProStar at the truckstop.
An old Inter parked at a truckstop. Note the big sign.

On holiday in Vietnam, Steve Skinner recently drove his family mad taking snaps of trucks. Here’s just a sample of some of the big and not-so-big bangers he saw
It’s ironic considering the Vietnam War that there are so many American trucks in that country.
One of the most common second-hand imports from the United States is Internationals.
Most of those seemed to be boxy old cab-overs that have rarely, if ever, been sighted in Australia.
But I did spot an International Eagle, and even an International ProStar — a model which is only just making its way to Australia now.
A ProStar won Truck of the Show at the Brisbane Truck Show.
Meanwhile, there are all sorts of other rigs on the road in Vietnam — check them out above.
