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..
