I run a small 140 acre grain and cattle farm. Have been looking at options for hauling grain to market. I have a 2010 regular cab chevy half ton with 28k miles on it. I bought it 4 years ago with 20k miles on it. Just don't use it as much as I thought I would. Seems to be a waste of resources just sitting in the garage. But I need a truck to pull cattle trailer 5-6 times a year and for general hauling at times. So I see an old c70 chevy sitting for sale. Was a fire dept truck so well cared for and low miles. Saw you could put a truck box on one of these. So I thought maybe I could sell the half ton, buy the c70. Use the c70 to pull 400 bu corn wagons 10 miles to market. I realize the c70 will only get 6 mpg. But at 5k or less miles it wouldn't cost much more for gas. I haven't called about the c70 yet. don't know any specifics other than it is a single axle and currently has no box or flatbed of any kind on it. Looks like around an 80 model. Good idea or bad? I kind of like old trucks, kind of dreaming and trying to find a reason to own one..

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
