Someone ought to put this song to that scene from Alfred Hitchcock's "North By Northwest". Where ol' Cary Grant nearly gets run down by one carrying gasoline with the attacking cropduster crashing into it!............ They prominently display the "White Freightliner Model Title" above the "late 50's era grill" in that historic piece of cinematography, as it comes right up and nearly pummel's Cary Grant. One might wonder if Hitchcock was using "product placement" to pay for the movie.
Anyone know if Jim Mares is still driving that White Freightliner out of Cedar Crest and Albuquerque? It was in Jim's truck that Townes wrote the song, as I recall.
It's called a Tacoma Papoose. Peter ulvey has one, I wouldn't be surprised if that is actually peter's. Its basically a guitar cutoff at the 5th fret.
One of my new favorite bands!
