Cool video of a K/20 still getting it done!

I found this through another forum I'm on, the old truck takes a beating, but I'd say it's been doing it for awhile, the guy driving it just turned 96 according to the video!

Re: Cool video of a K/20 still getting it done!

So let me get this straight, the guy driving the truck and doing all the work with the logs is 96? If so, thats pretty impressive right there. The truck did alright too!

Re: Cool video of a K/20 still getting it done!

These trucks were made to take a beating and look good doing it. Thats why they stood the test of time. The guy that previously owned my stepside thats all he used it for to haul firewood from Payson Az to Phoenix and its still in pretty good shape. I guess he hit and killed a couple deer with this truck one time getting wood. lol
