454SS as a work truck? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bit of a strange question here. I've recently been reading a lot about late 80s and early 90s sport trucks. My jumping off point was Jay Leno's GMC Syclone, whoch, while very cool, appears to be more of a sports car first and truck second with its meager hauling abilities. Nobody in their right mind would use a Syclone to move a half ton of Sheetrock around town.

But a 454SS? I don't know...it seems more likely. The 454SS seems more truck like, am I correct in that? Has anyone done any real work in one? What's your experience been?
