That is a man's truck and the thought of Bullfoot truckin' around in it just fits.
If I could afford to get it and keep it somewhere, I wouldn't hesitate for a minute.
Drivin' down a 2 lane country road in a stovebolt.....cowboy, it don't get no better than this!

Put a real diesel in it and pull yer ponies around with some stovebolt class (as much class as you can with a GMC). I've given up the fighting of the impulses. If the checkbook says I can buy it, I buy it. The checkbook doesn't often say I can buy it though,

It's 16K GVW and would handle that nicely. Tow her home with the Cumminsbolt...I've got two pickups to do already, but, darn, that would be a fun ride!

I'd love to pull up in the parking lot at work in that...just to have the truck that would occupy the most space! Some one asks "why?"; the answer would be a wink and a smile! Then, I'd have to find a 40' vintage-style flatbed trailer to haul my show cars...must..fight...impulse!
