When my dad was the master mechanic at the Ford dealership in Beloit Wisconsin he drove a Studebaker, most of the other mechanics had something other than a Ford too.

His boss offered them a special deal if they would buy at least a Ford pickup for work. Some of them took the deal but dad kept his Studebaker.

Yeah, these appear to be company trucks owned by Cummins.

my truck probly sits as high, if not higher than yours.

saying that, the 3rd gen 1500s are wicked low. they sit even lower than a stock 2nd gen 1500.

going camping tomorrow, got the bed of the truck loaded with pine, and a bit of oak. shes squatting about an inch, maybe less.

I have diesel coils and no add a leaf but the 3in wide springs. I would bet ours are pretty close. Plus the 2500 block is a lil taller

Back in the mountains for a few days, hiring process with UPS usually takes 2 weeks to gather all the interviewees background checks, then it moves to Driving Test and DOT Physical.

3 days of training in Maryland.

Also interviewed with Coca Cola and Verizon Wireless, among others.

Hurry up and wait as my grandfather would say
