good googly moogly look at the size of the rotating light, thats got to be 10-12" in diameter. I really hope that oversize orange pull knob on the dash is what turns it on.

It would be my guess that without any weight on that it would ride as soft as a steel i beam. its only been the last 10 years that 3/4 1 and even 2 ton trucks became comfortable to drive.

oh I know guys will disagree with me too, but expectation of what makes a "good" ride differs, I can barely stand to be jounced around in a solid front axle 1/2 ton truck. My street is 1 mile of miserably maintained dirt road and the ruts and bumps and washboard drive me nuts even in my wifes pilot.

that looks like a real survivor truck
$8k bid that hasn't hit the reserve with 2 hrs left

It's for sale by a dealer who sells "investment" autos so I'd think the reserve is well over what most of us see as a "daily use" vintage truck.

That said, boy howdy I'd love to have that truck in my collection of trucks. It's a neat rig that you can haul the grand kid's boy scout troop through the local parade in the morning and haul a load of 2x6's for the shop addition home in the afternoon.
