Yep, good stuff! I didn't have a car, we lived in farm country so I had a little tractor.

Re: Our Trucks Doing What They Did - Vintage Photo Thread

Thank Brian; you know I always appreciate the panel truck pics!

I don't know if I'd have enough "bread" to own that one, however. Maybe I'd better earn some more "dough."

And more...

Neat to see the yellow fleet optioned truck "in the wild." The green truck is in Yellowstone and boy do I remember the bears begging for food when you used to tour the park.
