    Get a tire fixed at the 76 in little rock and it is flat at the next stop because they left a screwdriver inside the tire.

    Did team across LA in one of those, powered by Yamaha and rode on springs yanking a tank. What a deal!
    Then...
    Got on with O/O...humping garbage from Ca to Fla. in KW, air ride, two sticks and a big white Cat under the hood....learned how to hot swap and run 2 sticks.

    That drivers, was a deal....

    Yep, remember the twin stirrups to get up in the truck, when I was a 185 lbs it was all easy. Pops O'l 1973 model (red) had no power steering, the white one had air assist, what a deal. Good looking truck Old man, I approve :)
