Can anybody help me with getting a picture of the delivery trucks that McDonald's used in Brandon during the mid-90's. They would have been around when McDonald's came out with Pizza.  
 
I remember them being white and looked like a modified Suzuki Samurai or something like that.  
 
Reason being, I live in Calgary and got into a conversation about McDonald's Pizza, one of my younger co-workers looked at me like I was smoking the good stuff, so I tried to explain that pizza was a thing at one time. This is when I started to explain how they had delivery trucks and all. At this point, everybody except the only other Brandonite in the room, thought I was crazy. So now I need to prove that they exist.  
 
After searching the wonderful world of google, I came up empty, discovering that Brandon was actually one of only a few Canadian cities that ever bothered to introduce delivery at McDonald's, so pictures of the mythical McDonald's delivery trucks seem to not exist.  
 
Help please! Or at least somebody that can corroborate my story.

I do remember the McDonalds delivery service in Brandon. For sure white vehicle as you described. Delivery was the coolest thing, especially since I was a country kid, to have McDonalds delivered right to the door, which I would order every time I babysat in Brandon.  
And I loved McDonalds pizza too...wish they would bring that back, and wish they would bring back the fajitas they sold occasionaly in the '90's!

I personally do not remember these trucks, but do remember McDonalds delivery here in Brandon. A company called "We Deliver" I believe was the company that did delivery for McDonalds at one time. We used that service a lot. It was kind of like skip the dishes type service. I miss McDonalds pizza.

I know "We Deliver" is a thing, but McDonald's had their own delivery service for a short time. I remember seeing maybe 4 or 5 of these little white trucks parked on the west side of the Richmond location, waiting to deliver.

they had a delivery fleet of suzuki samurai painted white with mcdonalds decals on them, we had to be one of the only places with delivery i think.

Now that you say that about where they were parked, I do remember the trucks. I had totally forgotten about them!  
Crazy!

They were a 4 door Suzuki Samarai. I use to want a cool 2 door Samurai when I was a teenager so I totally remember the uglier models that McDs used to test market delivery and pizzas.

I'm pretty sure
