Cummins power with a 9 speed in the Missouri Ozarks. Single stack with a skinny bumper. He bought the truck when he was 18. Needless to say he has made his old man proud.

O-H-I-O Porter greetings!🇺🇸 Now that’s what I’m talking about…Being given permission to drive any truck you want..Just get in & GO! 🤩 Those Generals are so cool! I like the old A model KWs as well. I was shocked that you didn’t want to drive the auto General. Don’t knock the automatics. They do have their place. I love the 7,9,13,18 speeds & I was so shocked when I drove a cabover Pete with an automatic! We drove it to Colorado & back to WV. What a wonderful trip! 🥰 I think it had 3:55 rears & would pull a box really well. I do remember the General you drove with him. You seemed to have such fun driving it. Did he ever sell it? Hey, I did notice that you didn’t want to drive the General because it was starting to rain…That shows RESPECT! I appreciate that, my brother! 😎 If you need a chaperone on the day you drive any others just let me know! 🥰 Keep On Truckin! 🥰🧐✌️
