This one is almost a twin to my S 160 except in Gulfstream blue? Heck of a deal at $1500. Thats like buying the box and getting the truck for free.

Sure looks nice. Around me there is still one or two small farms running gas engine, single rear axles grain trucks, Ones a 366 GMC C65 with a tag axle. Most farm are using semi's, parked out by the road and tractors pulling hopper trailers (with an unloading auger) from the combine to the semi. Only the small old farms with limited room use these old trucks. I still like hearing them pull out on to the hiway near my house.

That would be me. Small old farmer with a single axle Loadstar 1600 hauling all the grain from the combine. Grain to market has been hauled by custom semi for probably 20 years or so now since the local elevators closed down.
