Before Elon Musk's weird truck, there was this.

  1. It is 3000 times better then the musk truck. I would actually own and drive this Studebaker pick up, it is cool!

  2. The man in a local hardware store had one for deliveries of freezers and such, I helped him one day and he bragged: this rides like a sedan, hauls like a truck, gets 20+ mpg and always starts. The more I worked with him, the more I agreed. I'd take this one in a heart beat.

    1. Where I have a summer home is only 20+ miles of South Bend Indiana, Studebaker's former home, I see a good number of old Studebaker trucks still running around. They are kind of neat to see. I wonder how they stacked up against Chevy's and Ford's back then

  3. My Dad always said a Studebaker truck with a load on it could smell a hill coming a mile away.....

    1. My dad drove an International Harvester milk truck in the 30's. He said it wouldn't pull the hat off your head. That generation had a way with words, didn't they.
