With the exception of that oddity above, Packard ceased truck production in 1923, starting in 1902 according to Packard's records though subsequent study suggests the first truck was 1903. The generally accepted figure is that 43,538 Packard trucks were built. Though they are not often discussed here, information on them is actually quite plentiful. There is a very considerable amount of info and photos on them in the Kimes-edited book and you might also want to contact the Packard Truck Organization via Dave Lockard in York Springs, PA., he is the acknowledged authority on the subject.

The Packard Truck Organization is a region of The Packard Club (PAC).
