Trucks n' Stuff: Al scanavino & G&MD: fictional or real
Posted by caboose63 on Sunday, December 15, 2013 3:03 PM

Does anyone know if Trucks n' Stuff's Al Scanivino and G&MD semi tanker rigs are modeled after real companies, or are they fictional names? Have looked up both names and come up with nothing.

I see this gentleman drove for Al Scanivino and United Vintners. BTW Nice looking model tanker.

Cheers, the Bear.
