    Eastman Kodak was one of largest manufacturers and the largest employer in this area. They split and Kodak went to Mexico years ago. They still are a huge producer of chemicals.

    First time I ever saw that. I like it! Seal it, even though it's empty. He's right, makes it easier on everyone. And, your door won't bounce open. Yeah, I've had places have me slide the tandems, drop the trailer, pull ahead with the tractor and give them the keys. Plus, use the hook on the ICC bar and a glad hand lock. Whew!!! Don't worry! That's not going anywhere! Lol

    When World War I made it hard to get raw materials, Eastman Kodak founder George Eastman wanted an independent supply of chemicals for his photographic processes. After the war, he turned his attention to the forests of the southern U.S. In 1920, Tennessee Eastman was born in Kingsport. In the coming decades, the company created to deliver a handful of chemicals quickly became a creative force in the materials industry.

    Was at that Eastman plant just once in 1989. None trucking related.
    I have to say this was a very enjoyable video thru those mountains.
    Our RV sits on 22.5s so we are about the same seat height of your ole Volvo with huge front windows. I always wanted to have a drone in follow me mode down one of those big grades.
    I LIVED IN Tennessee in the 1960s as a young lad in Cleveland then moved to Cartersville, GA in 1967.
    My father opened a trucking terminal there for a now defunct PTL Trucking, If I recall they had about 500 rigs, lol all cracker boxes.
    I pushed a broom in that shop. They sold out to a competitor in 1968.
    No wonder I turned into a gearhead huh. Lol
