Looks like a 66 F100 std cab. It doesn't look like sand, could be crushed pumice stone. Why don't they make a full size truck that you can reach into the bed like that anymore?

Wonder who won the $100.00 for guessing the weight?

Skinny ties and buzzcuts gotta love it. @NumberDummy did you dress like that, or did they keep you hidden, far far, away from any potential customer interaction on ... general principles? (Rhetorical question)

These old trucks start riding pretty good when they are loaded like that. That must have been their go to test drive vehicle!

It didn't take a whole lot of weight to make those years of F100s squat.

Was the rear bumper extra or did you get to pick from a list?

Heck, everything was "extra". Armrests. I think passenger side sun visors? Windshield washers. Single speed wipers, if you want 2 speeds, well that's extra. I think heaters were deleted on some models.
