<reviewbody>Singing Wheels has to be one of the central films of the Prelinger Archives.  This one has it all - great ephemeral footage of highways and trucks, a serious toned narration about the importance of the trucking industry, and a really dumb song you can&#039;t get out of your head. What would happen if ALL the trucks suddenly disappeared?  Boy, would we all be in trouble!  Don&#039;t worry, it was just a bad dream!!

Film gets a little slow when they interview the &quot;typical&quot; truck driver to show how alert and nice he is. He recites all of the right answers to a stern interviewer as if applying for a new job.  This doesn&#039;t prove much but might have convinced people of the time that they were good fellows.</reviewbody>

<review><reviewbody>Endless movie about the trucking industry. Believe you me, about 2 minutes into this, I knew that this was going to be a long haul (excuse the pun). Yes! Truckers go day and night! shipping all sorts of goods! They have to mechanically sound! Let&#039;s go to the plant! And well, if you thought &#039;Singing Wheels&#039; title meant that there would be a song or two, well you would be right. </reviewbody>
