wheezy Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 does anyone know what those trucks were originally designed to do, military, logging, shipping shit to remote locations, or just be badass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted April 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I'll take 2: Seems like a damned reasonable truck, probably cheap as hell, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 i have wondered why none of the american truck makers get into those competitions, maybe that is something we could do eric. Dad has a nice cab over international that would be a good candidate oh and go to a logging site where they are using straight trucks, they do some scary shit with there rigs that makes my butt pucker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 There was a black truck like that at U store and sell, a couple years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted May 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 i have wondered why none of the american truck makers get into those competitions... ... Because we have roads. The driving force behind the marketing of those trucks is a total lack of infrastructure. If you were to build them here, you'd go out of buisness because hillbilly lottery-winners won't support the margins you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
