Go to Chuck's web site and you'll see the truck. Pickup bed, not flatbed. And iirc a pic of his smiling face. They spent more time on his truck than the Dodge or Chevy, but not a lot in total I agree. Stu

Did Chuck let her drive it or was he demonstrating how the AC (cowl Vent) works ?

I just searched, and don't see it anywhere on YouTube yet.

Chuck wasn't on camera. The "expert" was from Haggerty Insurance.

It was parked in a display area outside the Fox studios in Manhattan. Roped off I'm sure, but Maria Molina climbed up in it as the Haggerty guy was describing it. He did a good job of discussing its rarity, and you couldn't miss how perfect the interior on it is compared to the shaggy interior of the Dodge sitting next to it. They were also impressed with the optional shiny brass fire extinguisher. Stu

thanks for the link, but the "expert" lost me at F-150! he only had 3 trucks to talk about, how hard would it have been to know what the hell your talking about?

Anyway. Chuck- That is a beautiful truck, and it's cool that you took the time to put it out there for everyone to see.

I think he was trying to let the viewers know that Chuck's truck was the predecessor of the F-150 (and F-100). At least that's the way I took it. And the F1 was noticeable in the side view, as was the M-H emblem (but you'd have to know what that was).

But I thought the mention of the fire extinguisher was totally unnecessary. After all, he didn't mention the crummy looking door panel on the Dodge.

BTW, that's a nice looking fire extinguisher Chuck.

Anyone see the irony where the Dodge truck's door handle is droopy and the one on Chuck's truck is perfectly straight?

Also, what **** is she turning on the dash?

They should have told her to just look pretty and shut up, keep her hands off.

Yes, Ilya, I caught that right away!

I can't get the damn player to play Joe.
It just sits there and I don't see anyway
to turn it on. Where is the Joy button?
This sucks big time.

Edit: I reloaded the page and got it to work.
Watching now. Computing the net is so cool
when it works.

Well that was great. Thanks. Just wish it would
have let me turn up my video. My card would
handle it but the option wasn't there. CC was
though. As I am mostly deaf that let me hear
or see just how dumb some people are. Also
wish they had spent more time on Chucks truck.
Awesome truck Chuck. Great job on it. I have often
wondered how the 4X4 works. Is it like a modern
truck like my 85 Bronk with lock out hubs? Or more
like a full time set up? Anybody?

I agree, But I realize my graphics where turned down
but she looked like she had been out on an all nighter
to me. No amount of make up can help some. And she
needs to learn to walk in heels. I call that crab walking.
Not very pretty at all. Again thanks Joe and Chuck. I did
enjoy it a lot. Now I am wanting more. Not her but more
trucks. More Chucks Trucks. Do you have a panel Chuck?
Or was that someones else that was for sale a while back?
It was an M-H 48/50 that excited me so.
