Re: "BIG" truck forum C/40, C/50, C/60 and the like...
I drove an old 72 GMC tandem dump body.401 V6 5 speed main box and a 4 speed aux. off and on for 8 years.Light loaded was ok but when I hauled sand to the batch plant 21 ton at a time (overloaded ) you needed every gear!!
Also about the same time period I pulled trailers with a 74 Chevy C60 366 V8 5 speed and 2 speed axle.
Drove a 65 Chevy fuel truck,If you left the two back compartments full and the rest empty it would wheel stand (don't ask how i know that)
