Do these count? First is overlooking lake Erie with Canada in the background if you have really good eyes. Second is parked by Findley Lake not too far from me.

This sad old K10 has been put on permanent billboard duty

**Ol Blue K20** · 12-07-2020, 08:34 AM

It's been there for years too. It breaks my heart everytime I see it.

**Boog** · 12-07-2020, 01:48 PM

It really needs to be rescued.

I have tried multiple times over the years. To no avail obviously.

I spied this 68 Burban off of Sandy Blvd. After looked at the interior think it started life as a Chevy.

That's a shame. Do you remember for years they tied off a big balloon to that truck that said "pies". Has been there a LONG time!

I remember the pie balloon. I think it been there at least 20 years, maybe more.

Here's a pic from their site.

**landarts** · 12-09-2020, 10:07 AM

Here is a really cool photo I ran across from a cover of a book.
The book is about the largest mule deer that was shot in the state of Idaho. The picture has three or four large deer tied down to the roof of a GMC truck.

**72 tigger** · 12-09-2020, 10:50 AM

Cool pic of the GMC with the deer. What seems strange to me is what looks like (4) guys in the cab. I get a little weird about (3) guys in my truck. A woman in the middle is fine, but rubbing legs with a guy is not fun

**HO455** · 12-09-2020, 03:08 PM

3 or 4 people in a truck was common back in the day. As far as loggers commuting to the woods for work it was everyday. Gas was expensive and truck pooling saved money.
Winter time with extra clothes things were tight. You would take your coat off and it and your work boots would ride in the tool box to make more room. Nothing like stepping out of a warm truck to put your boots and coat on in 10 degree or colder temperatures. And your clothes have been riding in the tool box for 50 miles.
With a 4 speed the rider next to the driver was expected to move the shifter so they could move their legs as the shifter moved.
I find the California plates on the truck interesting. They may have drove from California with 4 people.

Also if that was during the gas rationing there might be 4 more laying in the bed

**DeadheadNM** · 12-10-2020, 08:48 AM

I was one of two passengers in the cab of a friends automatic k10 swb driving back to ABQ from a series of concerts in Phoenix December of 1991. We ran into a friend who needed a ride back to ABQ so he rode in the bed. We got stopped that night on I40 by a NMSP trooper. He had us cram our buddy into the cab so didn’t get hypothermia. In retrospect he wasn’t dressed for the temperature and admitted being cold. So we kept on with four guys in the cab.

My how times have changed, I’m sure he’d have given you a fat ticket and made your buddy in the bed walk... I have total respect and appreciation for law enforcement and what the deal with, but sometimes it seems like they could let these kinds of things slide more than some do. The state cops up in this part of the state can be pretty tough, especially the DOT officers.
