    In addition to liking Studebakers, I like old trucks.

    I'd rather drive an older Truck than these new cars with dozen's of computer modules, overly complicated and not built to last.

    I found this old truck dealer in Ohio.

    You gotta like his Marketing having a T-Cab on the front lawn.

    Thanks for posting this Rhys,
    I think I would be like a kid in a candy store if I were "on site" looking over the inventory.

      I agree that I prefer driving older vehicles, especially my 56 Hawk. And I agree that newer vehicles are overly complicated. But not built to last? Hmmm... my 2000 Chevy Express has 180,000 miles and I changed the starter, the serpentine belt and a pulley. Yesterday I drove 300 miles to pick up a friend from the hospital in her 2012 Kia Sorrento. Everything works except for the cruise control and one door handle... it has 253,000 miles on it. There is a reason old cars odometers read to 5 figures and newer cars read to 6.

        My 1973 International grain truck has a 6 digit odometer. I seem to recall my 1959 IH B-120 4x4 did as well.
