Re: Loadmaster '47 COE
Hey Solid, the cushion for the bottom is fine, no but burn, no issues. That being said the seat back can be a little rough. For normal driving no big deal but on a long day like yesterday it gets you in the lower back. Yesterday I was using a Yoga mat from Walmart across the back cushion. My wife had this idea and it worked great. 16 hours on the road, no discomfort yesterday no issues at all this morning. My seat is from a 1990 Silverado 60/40.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE
indicates 78 mph @2000 rpm - sweet - and 16.5 mpg with that flat nose - I'd say that's great

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE
The flat lands of Oklahoma, it pretty much all looks the same until you get into the edge of the Rockies in Colorado. Passed a factory where they make the wind turbines, there are hundreds of these waiting for shipments. I would estimate they are about 75 foot long per blade and 6 to 8 foot in diameter at the mounting flange. I will try to get some pictures of the local salvage yards, they are gold mines for old trucks.

Re: Loadmaster '47 COE
I finally found something I could outrun. There is a lot of these old trucks running around in Southern Colorado with very little rust. We went up to Estes park and spotted these Elk in a pond, yes there is still snow on the Rockies. I did do some minor changes to the truck: I added a quick disconnect with air hose to fill tires of run air tools. My compressor puts out 10 CFM while the engine is running so it was handy to patch a tire for my son. I also added a Poo sheet to the Yogo mat for comfort (and style?). We're over 3K on the trip so far and starting for home later today after a round of Golf with an old friend in Wichita.

two things, 1. I wish I had known, looks like blue jeep was in town today too based on his project thread. 2. I bet you are seriously regretting the round of golf, the heat index is 106 and the humidity means I havent been outside for more than a minute or two.
