Longhorns luuuv to haul weight. Got some of the "new' hauler. Gives the 1/2 ton a break except when someone gives you a free 5th wheel or left over F-100. The 10 lug GMC got to show off on its first outing hauling a 68 F-850. (in 3 pieces of course)

Arrow Re: Do You Use It Like a Truck ?

A C10 may have once been for hauling gravel's and working and im sure they did good , BUT NOW my C10's only job is to put a smile on my face everytime I ride it up the road ! come out of walmart and the guy standing there wanting to buy it ! ride around going nowhere for no reason ! and yes going to get parts when I need to , it is unthinkable to not have a C10 out here to ride !

Re: Do You Use It Like a Truck ?

Mine is pretty much a dedicated work truck. It runs too well and rides too smooth to justify tearing it down. I hauled this about thirty miles to the dump. Surprisingly no tickets...

Re: Do You Use It Like a Truck ?

I drove mine hard and put it away wet and muddy for the first eight years I owned it. It was getting pretty tired by the time I decided to bite the bullet and resto mod it. Now? It will be pampered and preserved for my grand kids to enjoy someday. I will drive it for sure but never like before. I'm surprised at the haters for this type of thing on this site. Preservation is key to these rigs being around for a long time. I love all of these trucks just the same and judge no one. But I certainly wont apologize for the choices I have made for my own truck and its future.
