tjc transport Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago my introduction into the cracker box was the fire departments aerial ladder. V12 engine with 10 speed trans. there were only 4 of us that could drive it. 1985 it was sold to a fire department out in the midwest at 20 years old because we could no longer rate it as a first line truck without doing a complete refurbish... and that cost almost as much as the new diesel truck that replaced it. it had a little over 17,000 miles on it when it went west. 1 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..

Paul I can only remember seeing one of those dodge cabovers in person …. They were probably a little more popular when I was a lot younger I actually drove a conventional dodge one day filling in on a trash pickup route I actually liked it hadda gas engine Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/58945-gmc-cracker-box/page/3/#findComment-573832 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was upset and kept splitting :hi/lo range ; boss came over and ripped me a new ass--le . don't recall out come. I will say the crackerbox is unique and fun. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/58945-gmc-cracker-box/page/3/#findComment-573839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
