Ah. HINO is the name of a company.
I thought maybe HINO was an acronym for Hellacious In Name Only.

I noticed Coldwater Creek Dr. is now Hino Dr. Lots of signs the economy is picking up in Parkersburg. Folks bitch about the pipeline coming through, but it’s boosting the economy. The carry out/bait/campground store in Elizabeth reopened.

Here in the southern reaches of Puget Sound I see signs advertising for CDL truck drivers at two different businesses, a large sign saying “Bricklayers Wanted $55 per hour”, our local sawmill is hiring, commercial shellfish farms need people, the Bremerton Naval Shipyard has been looking for 800+ apprentices for over a year, so things are looking pretty good in our blue collar rural area.

I did not know that Hino was even here. I remember those big ol' trucks all over Okinawa when I was there. It took some really skilled drivers to navigate those small roads.

I thought the Hinos were cool when I was there

I live a few miles from both Hino plants, they are a Toyota company. My Toyota Tundra, it’s the only full sized pickup made in America. Unions ruined the Big Three. Drove them out out of the country.

My son works at the Hino plant in Arkansas. They make all the differentials, front suspensions, and a few other items for Toyota Tacoma’s, Tundra’s, Land Cruiser’s, and a few others.
