3 Chevy beds trump a Dodge anyday?

retodd7711 · 02-05-2008, 10:24 AM

Even if you gave the Dodge a head start, I think that guy could out run it!

72freak · 02-05-2008, 10:25 AM

Thats a good looking Custom Camper they got there!!!!

72BlckButy · 02-05-2008, 11:10 AM

That's the best looking load I've seen on a Uhaul trailer in a while.

Ask uncle how many doors/fenders/core supports/hubcaps/tailgates and whatever else he can get his hands on will fit inside

*Shane* · 02-05-2008, 01:44 PM

"Take whatever you can fit!"

It's amazing what some people can make work.

68gmcdually · 02-07-2008, 05:02 AM

We are home, and had a blast. Thanks to everyone for their "southern" hospitality. We drove to 4 am monday morning, slept just over the Kentucky line until 8 am, ate breakfast at the local Cracker Barrel and started north again, by the time customs had their fun with us it was 1:30 am when we unloaded the '67 and it was 4 am by the time I rolled into my house and I had to be at work at 8 am, oh what fun.

We ended up having to remove the white tailgate and the articles from the box of the white truck in order to get some more tongue weight to stop the trailer from whipping at 80 km/h (50 mph), with the weight switched around we could get up to 60 mph.

We need some pictures of the truck stuck in that Georgia mud and the crew cab silverado that pulled out that big bad dodge.

**uncle** · 02-07-2008, 05:43 AM

Glad to see you made it home.

68gmcdually · 02-07-2008, 06:13 AM

We are glad too, it was a long run at 55 mph

72MARIO · 02-10-2008, 12:37 AM

Thanks for posting the pitcures.

Thats me trying to get out of that shot.

Glad the trucks was as nice as it looked in the pitcures I am very happy with it.

Thanks for taking your sunday and helping up load up.

krazy_texan · 02-10-2008, 01:39 AM

so these trucks will fit on a uhaul trailer

68gmcdually · 02-10-2008, 01:43 AM

Mario had a smile on his face that an undertaker couldn't remove the whole way home cuz he was so happy with his new truck. As I said before we unloaded it about 1:30 am and he was out in the garage working on it before 9 the next morning after being up for most of the weekend.

They do but, I don't recommend putting the second box on the back, it throws the tongue weight all out of whack. A Longhorn for sure wouldn't fit on though.

Tim is an A++ guy! I think most of us who've ever met and chatted with him are not surprised that you had a superb experience.

Probably one of the best damned resources this forum has - and I'm glad he lives less than 30 minutes away from me

**70cst** · 02-10-2008, 03:46 AM

Ok...what I see it that you are putting your "Dodge to bed.! Or I see a set of twin beds plus a single bed? Or maybe I see bunk beds.
