What the...

Browsing CL and I come across this:

1996 Ford F350

Can you say "wide turning radius"?
Then I read the ad- needs an injection pump? Huh? And look at the frame sag!!!

I've seen a 6 door Dodge before, back around 1996 or so.
On edit- I've seen that before too, I thought it was RobbGT who posted it originally.

LOL looks like it needs a lift axle whoever extended the frame didn,t do a good job they should have used some better steel.

At my old job we had a hydro-vac truck that was long and sagged like that it was no fun driving down the highway the back would sway from side to side.

That's not sag. It's an optical illusion. The frame is straight, it just doesn't accomodate the curvature of the Earth underneath it....

But look between the cab and the "sleeper"... it looks like the sleeper tips toward the cab at the top.

Um, it was a joke (we do all know what "curvature of the Earth" means, right?).
