We are so lucky out here. The trucks just last.
Most all of them were outside their entire life.
By the end of the 90's most all the rockers were getting bad, rarely cab corners. But they are work trucks, it hardly matters
I was also lucky because we do all of our work in the same town.
Never really had to put a lot of miles on them.
It's a smaller town so I have a couple friends who are mechanics.
They do the maintenance.
Another buddy has a tow truck company, which is more important.
I can't even count how many tows we have had over the years
Here's a couple that lost there life. It usually wasn't because of rust.
Both of these I yanked the drive train for nicer trucks
And used the other good bolt on parts too.
