The furthest destination I've driven my stock 1939 Chevrolet 3/4 ton JD stake truck was 160 miles. It'll do 50-55 comfortably. I use the interstates for long distances. If others want to pass they got the left lane to do so. My daughter and I will be driving it 480 miles one way to the 60th Anniversary meet of the VCCA this summer in Bowling Green, Kentucky. She knows there will be no power steering, power brakes and the only AC is the cowl vent and crank out windshield. I figure it'll be 2 days there and 2 days back. I'm a little apprehensive about that long grade on I-75 in Florence/Covington, Kentucky after crossing the Ohio River from Cincinnati, Ohio. In the past I've had truckers and motorhomes come along side me, toot their horns, and get in behind me and keep others off my tail. Are any of you Stovebolters attending this meet?
