Re: Almost Pullin' Time!!!
6200 is a decent weight class for these old trucks- I like 6500 better. At 6500, you can really get a good grip & keep all 4 tires pulling with proper weight/ hitch positioning. I don't like the 5800 class- too light, it makes it tough to plant the front on a hard- biting track. My '72 with the tailgate and rear bumper removed weighs 5540 with my fat but in the seat!
