Haulers are sissys, I bought a truck from Colorado 2 years ago. The only way the truck driver and the previous owner knew how to start it was by pouring gas in the carb. Neither one knew the truck had a choke and the driver had no clue what the choke did. I freaked him out when it started right up for me.
Brakes are just as bad, we had a 51 GMC pickup and a 46 ton and a half Chevy on the farm, neither had brakes and we used them to haul and pull wagons all the time. Hauled loads of grain and hay with the 46.
Our neighbors has a 47 Ford ton and a half they used for hauling beets, corn and hay. The truck had no hood and a Hot little flathead with a cam, Offenhouser heads and two carb, no brakes.
