The Gargantua is the result of a dream. Henry L. McFern (now president
of the Gargantua Co.), was the dreamer. Mr. McFern wanted something
that would revolutionize the truck business, and yet still be a truck.
He gave it the thought of all his waking hours. His friends called him
a "dreamer," but Henry McFern only smiled. When first he brought out
the model of the Gargantua it was called "McFern's Folly," but Henry
McFern only smiled the more. And when the time came for the test, it
