I think a lot of us would be completely upset to find that we went to the car show and our trucks got filthy!

One of our guys at Halliburton told me they had the second largest truck fleet in the world ...only the US Army had more.

But I see some Sierra Classics...possibly the importer just liked red

Box rails and cab marker lites on everything

Neat pictures

What surprise me in the U.S truck that i saw most of them has automatic transmission. As you said in that time most of the export truck were in red color

The wheel for this truck is 15" and the hubcap came for dodge and gmc truck.

It just style change

I agree with you about the red color and i saw many truck with different color but the attention is not that strong. If you are driving a red truck, you will see a lot of people watching you by default because of the red color.

Although as one person said it could have been a retired Halliburton fleet.

Ya and this is depend on the country and the dealer of the country what kind of truck and specification he will bring. For example, 72 gmc and chevy truck in Saudi Arabia has no AC in it, while i saw many in the U.S has AC and different specification.

Well no salt you are right but we do have a strong humidity which can play with body of the truck.

Thank you for your visit and in my country we don't like 4X$ because it is not comfortable.

I saw a red GMC square one time in Kuwait and remembered thinking, wow, that's neat. I guess they are more common than I thought.

BTW, bigarmzz, I LOVE that avatar...

As long as we are in the same currency:

$0.45/Gal - 91
$0.61/Gal - 95

Wow...

Saudia Arabia Is the best country for trucks 87 and earlier you can find genuine GM parts over there and I was amazed I found some very rare parts still in their AC Delco and GM box's

Much love from Bahrain
