Power brakes - maybe if you use both feet
A/C - You got both windows open and vent windows for when your moving

Those were a farm truck
Ah, the ''good olde'' days, trucks were simple enough to understand.
When the truck died you could get it going again just by filing the points or adding gas!

Where is the 5th wheel being put on?
Flamans have a decent price on the hitch but I don`t know what they charge for labour....
