Can I reapply? I forgot about a family vacation in 2007 when we had a severe drought. For this vacation, that meant no water on the boat ramps, back up at your risk.

This is my brother's truck that he'd bought new only five or six days before this vacation. We had to back into the lake before the boat would finally float off. I snapped a pic for posterity

Of course I had to pull him out of the lake, the price was another pic.

Re: Trucks Working
My workhorse pulled All of our belongings over 1000 miles from Las Cruces NM to Reno Nv. I drove through a Border Patrol checkpoint and they were laughing at me, (BTW the whole front seat was filled with bags of Hatch Green Chili).

Was this the truck that sat 5+ years and had an engine with stuck valves?

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Re: Trucks Working
Great topic and enjoy seeing working trucks! No doubt they are "like a rock".

Tossing the C-30 into the mix here. Despite the chrome it is a working truck.



Looking forward to the next firewood run with this new trailer set-up:

Re: Trucks Working
A little "light work":



A little heavier duty:



A little "show car" work (I drive it to work every day):



Plus some vintage stuff:
