Hello from NYC...
Hey guys. Great site.
First time truck owner here...88 GMC 1500 stepside. Bought it to tow my car for a race in Norwalk this year. So I'd like to find out all I can about what it'll take for this truck to tow... Although I'm not a real truck guy...I know I won't be able to NOT work on something on this thing! (I smell a BBC!) |
