This is my truck at work hauling paint for the lines on our soccer fields. I hauled 1150 lbs of field paint to our soccer complex. The paint is on a pallet which was "carefully" forklifted onto the bed and driven 5 miles to our fields.
My truck was used by my grandfather on his dairy farm for about 23 years then I bought it and it was used for a while as a construction truck and after that only for hauling yard waste, mulch and truck parts and, last spring, field paint.

Let's bump this great thread back up to the top with a picture of what us Northerners are going to be dealing with very soon:
I remember seeing this picture before, I think on the HAMB. I came upon it again tonight browsing the Minnesota State Historical Society archives. A lot of great pictures there.
This was taken in 1965 near Willmar, Minnesota.

Great picture...of that Ford truck...with trailer...marooned in a huge snow drift.
BTW, one of the greatest blizzards in this region took place on March 4, 1966 and blanketed....and I mean....really blanketed the area from Chicago...north through Minnesota, North Dakota and Manitoba all the way up to Lake Winnipeg.
I spent a lot of time in the northern Minnesota, southern Manitoba areas during the 60's and in my many years I've never seen a storm...blizzard as bad as March 4, 1966.
There's a great book...called The Relentless Blizzard of March, 1966 by a couple of North Dakotans...Douglas Ramsey and Larry Skroch that covers this storm of storm in great detail...over 600 pages. I bought the book from the ND Museum...I think it was in Bismarck.
