Studebaker Truck
I was watching Mecum auto auction earlier and they had a Studebaker truck (similar to pic) on the floor. I've never seen one before..looks cool but not crazy about the spare location.

Re: Studebaker Truck
Corvair rear engine. Cool looking truck..huge bed. The fold-down side ramp looks like it would come in handy too.
I'd like to see Honda make the Ridgeline with a two door and longer bed option. Some of the older models are hideous but the current one looks nice minus the (too) small bed.
If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Ridgeline
I used one (probably about a 2013 model or so) to haul my newest 65" TV.....I had to leave the tailgate down and strap it in just so it would lay flat.
My little truck will haul full 4x8 sheets of plywood with the tailgate down but I had to make some stands so they sit above the wheelwells
That’s my problem with all the trucks nowadays. They are people carries, luxury liners first then the truck is an after thought. That’s why I have an 86 F-150 with an 8’ bed for doing truck stuff. Most people though don’t need much more then a Ridgeline which I do really like.
That is a cool looking truck. The VW is sweet too.
