350 vs 390

[dajn]

Just thought i would share a memory when my dad was still alive. He had a late seventies 3/4 ton chevy pickup all time four wheel drive. That thing was a beast. I remember as a kid helping my dad cut wood and having a cord of oak in the box. He rigged up sides to make it hold it. Thats about three ton in the box. Also i remember one of my dads Friends with his early 70's ford 3/4ton . Four speed with a 390. That thing sounded so awesome. It was a cool truck. Not sure what instigated it but i will never forget when they chained up. Automatic is the only way to go when your trying to pull. This is no ****. After they both sat there and dug a hole, my dads pickup took off. This is no ****, it shifted into second gear and it was pulling.
