[AT] Now Trucks pulling tractors

[Richard Fink Sr]

Mike i had thought about that when i first got this truck but never pursued 
it. It has to 70 seres front end never figured out why it had a 60 in the 
rear. i purchased it from lot stock and figured some one must have ordered 
it that way. I waited 3 months for one i had ordered and got tired of the 
bull from dealer why it had not come in and found another one on a 
different dealers lot.
