Anyone know anything about this model? Just different and thought worth sharing as its one you don't see every day. photo #1 photo #2 photo #3 | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | The box in not factory. Looks like it might be for a later model single wheel truck. I see them all the time, mostly electrical contractors, plus the phone and cable companies have them.
On the other hand, the truck itself is somewhat odd, being the unusual 3/4 ton with the dual wheel option.

Some looked nice and some were just plain U G L Y. But it was what they wanted. | | |
