Grain trucks were geared pretty low and just lumbered along. Consider, also, that a lot of grain country is relatively flat. We had an old Ford truck with a 292, 4 speed and a 2 speed rear axle. I was pretty adept at getting a run at the 1 hill I had to climb on the way into town and downshifting without losing speed. '63 Dodge 330 11.19 @ 121 mph Pump gas, n/a, through the mufflers on street tires with 3.54's. 3,600 lbs. 10.01 @ 133mph with a 250 shot of nitrous an a splash of race gas. 1.36 60 ft. 3,700 lbs.

I have problems driving my Cummins 3500 dually through there with a 44' fifth wheel! Cool to see it has electronic ignition and the two speed rear! Last edited by Rhinodart; 10/09/23 08:51 PM.

Right out of high school in '83 I hauled newspapers for a guy, back when EVERYBODY got a Sunday paper. He had a '68 Chevy, C50 or so, with an inline 6 and 4+2. Sixteen foot steel van box that would get loaded with newspapers about 4' high every Sunday morning. It would run 65 mph on the way to load, 45 mph at WOT on the way back. Back then they were still building "over the road" long-haul trucks with gas engines, some with ridiculous displacements...
