Re: Getting some work out of Old Smokey
45+ years and still working. Different work ethic back then I guess!

Re: Getting some work out of Old Smokey
Yes I have had many newer trucks and Vans over the years , this truck takes the work better then any of them , they all would be sagging and bottoming out when I would load them like this ,I do have air shock in the back and spring assisted shocks in the front but what a great truck for hauling

Re: Getting some work out of Old Smokey
LWB?
I wish my truck was a lwb so I could carry longer boards. |

 I just think a lwb looks better, always have. Even when I was a kid and I'd look at my truck (then it was my dad's) I would think the front end looked too long for the back. Long beds haul more too. At some point, when all the lwb's are chopped up, there will be swb's lengthened. Human experience is like that. Last edited by In The Ten Ring; 08-18-2016 at 11:24 PM. |
