Trucks in Wahington state - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just got back from a road trip across northern Washington state and highway 20 is jammed packed with farm trucks. Must have seen 200 or more. Late 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's. Most of eastern Washington is very dry and there are tons of great build starters. Sorry no pics, kinda hard to snap when you are exceeding the double nickel.

I live in the Yakima Valley and many older trucks around here still get used for work in the fields or otherwise on a regular basis. Some only get used during harvest and actually have pretty low miles on them. Some like the hop trucks here in the valley get used pretty hard and pretty rough though. They only work about 2-1/2 months a year but get run 24-7 then and often by drivers with little skill at driving.
