Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
All I haul is cardboard...a LOT of cardboard. That is actually what I bought the truck for, besides it being awesome and learning how to work on it.
First load after a huge back to school: Late load after bringing in a bunch of kids art supplies: All of this goes to the recycler!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
My latest combo resulted in 6 mpg on a test run! Fully loaded and mixed driving. I'm hoping for 7 mpg or better all highway!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
I started a similar thread "payload" a year later. Hadn't noticed this one, but will look through it! If you're interested in more pictures, check it out here:

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
It tows great and I leave it in OD.
The 4L60E has a low enough first gear that it takes off with no problem, and at 70mph she idles along at 1600 to 1700 rpm. I figured I would have to go to 3.42? (like the donner truck was) or worst case 3.73's to pull good but I'm not messing with success. |

If you repainted the red stripe on the trailer Medium Olive, you would be set!
