Cool Trucks

Little bias'd cause this one is mine, but I like all the Scouts out there

Does this still count as a truck even though it's slightly larger than a matchbox? God I would love one of these for getting around the farm during the winter!

Maybe it's a forward control or some may call it a van. I normally don't go for the lowered thing but I would so frakkin drive this!


Few more


Samuri truck?? New one on me.

LOL!

1974 Datsun 620. Bought new for $2800, sold in '79 for $2800. Had a lot of fun with this truck.

'56 GMC I had while in school in RI. A real beater, but I loved the beautiful grill work. The interior was fixed up real nice.

'89 D250 I bought new. Really loved this truck. Just shy of 300,000 mi., the engine, tranny, interior, body, and frame were about shot. Just took her to be scrapped last month. It was pretty tough to do.

Current ride, '77 M880. 5/4 ton, 318 engine with RV cam, 727 tranny. 4.10 differentials. Full time 4WD through NP203 transfer case; hi range, low range, differential lock. Top speed in high range: 70mph, allegedly; 60mph is more realistic. Top speed in low range: 19mph. 48,000 miles when purchased last year. Former Forest Service fire vehicle.

Damn straight. Thats a work horse and a very nice truck.

There was a 78 Ramcharger round here for sale a while back, I wish I had the dough it was a real battle ax.

It also had a 35 gallon gas tank. At the time it was north of $130 for a fill up.

I love old Dodges, here's mine:

The day I picked her up:



As she sits now:

Want!

"It will take you anywhere without worry of getting stuck..."

"Makes a Unimog or Pinzgauer look like toys..."

Yeah, sure, ya betcha.

I've seen quite a few of those out here, usually painted up in Frito-Lay regalia, and set up four hauling fifth wheels.

I haven't noticed any for sale, just sitting on corners of random properties. They seem like one of those things people buy on a whim, and have big plans for.

A good source for Cummins 6BT engines, or so I've heard.

I actually just drove by another one today, and it had a sign in the window, but I didn't have time to stop. I'll try to remember to stop tomorrow.

4BT?

Yeah, dammit, that's it.

All I want out of life right now is a good night's sleep.
