If I wasn't so consumed in my 68, I would buy one of them. It's a pretty remote area so they don't get a lot of traffic. I was kind of looking for a shortbed, but they didn't have any.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

Saw a 4fer the other day! (See GMC on left behind the brand X truck) Do to their close proximity they might be owned by the same person. I know that sounds strange but, I've heard that it actually happens.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I saw this Custom Camper Cheyenne in what looks to be silver yesterday. I may have to stop and take a closer look at some point. (When the fence is open! )

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I would bet that used to be olive green. It was notorious for fading to silver. I owned this truck for a short time, believe it or not that’s original olive paint...

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I spied a couple of ones out and about in town.
The first one is out of year but nice truck with a nice dog riding shotgun just off the Banfield by Lloyd Center.
Second one was down in Gladstone.
And the third one was somewhere I was at the same time and it sure looked good.

Another overworked Ochre truck serving as someone's primary residence. Seen down at the Delta park bottle/can return building.
See previous posting #352 for the other overworked Ochre.

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I saw this one on a trip from Buffalo to Pittsburgh end of July last year. It was on I-79 South out of Erie, PA. Sorry for all the bugs on my windshield.

You make it sound like "bugs on my windshield" is a "bad" thing...

Re: Trucks in the Wild

I saw this one last June in Haines, Alaska while my wife and I were on a cruise. She said I took more pictures of the truck then I did our vacation (Not True!). Although I did take a fair amount of pictures of it.
