LOL....

I've seen lots of old trailers bolted to the top of deck boats but this is the first time I've seen a truck on one!

Good eye Bob

He want's to cruise the waterways in the Ford pick-em-up boat. Who says there isn't a little 302 under the hood.

Next time you hear the phrase " What would Jesus drive?" Well, there you go. I saw a similar pont with an old pick up on the Miss riv years ago. These guys take a little air out of the ponts and let them sink a bit to make folks think it is a truck driving on the water. From a distance it looks like it untill you see the paint on the platform. The cuban do it all the time to get to Miami too. It is funny.
