Someone needs (ok, someone should want) this truck. Is that a 9 foot bed or an 8 foot bed?

 

Thats a 9 foot bed

 

Someone needs to pick that up.
Those are some neat pictures, but they need some closer ones and interior shots.

 

The 9' has two stake pockets over the rear fender where the 8' has just one. Stu

 

O/T -- that pic in front of the Arco powerplant intrigued me, check this out!

It's a nice truck, not keen on the colors but looks very solid. Priced fairly IMO.

 

Still way, way OT ... That can't be right. Two physicists were killed (in separate incidents) by the same core in 1945 and 1946 - Harry Daghlian and Louis Slotin, basically by either dropping it or dropping things on it; didn't go off, but a nice blue glow was enough to kill them, horribly.

Agreed the truck is cool. Needs more pictures of truck. Looks like Trapper Peak a little bit, down in the Bitterroot.

 

Well I like it. Color and all.
