M37 Trucks were made for the Korean War, and the first part of the Vietnam War. Built like a tank, but underpowered by today's standards. Max speed is 55, but they are generally more comfortable slower than that. However, they will go just about anywhere.
To the OP: sorry for the topic drift.
Too many Kubotas

Why bother with plowing when it's so easy to just keep driving?

This time of year, I plow more gravel & mud than I do snow. At least until the ground freezes anyway.

Yeah, it really takes some finesse to do it this time of year. I do find it a bit easier with the UTV with its lightweight plow rather than using the loader or snowblower on the tractor. I'm also closer to the action on the UTV, so it's easier to react quickly.

Luckily this year we got alot of rain before the freeze took over. Ground if nicely frozen. Got 5” of snow on ground, but calling for warmer weather. I may plow it just so i dont get slush pile….not sure though. I would probably melt away just fine. I look when it gets abit brighter outside

I'm keeping the "farm truck look" on my recently bought Ford F100. I'm looking into a matte finish wipe-on preservative, since I don't like the gloss.The rat rod look is in, I think it looks good just the way it is.

I did a 50/50 mix of satin and gloss.
My son has a 1960 F100 that is pretty OG looking (it's not - it was Navy Gray, literally, and got painted red sometime later) and he wants to keep it that way. He keeps talking about taking the rest of my satin to do his. He added a blow-through turbo (home "built") to the straight 6. The insurance co made him take the lettering off, and he's blasted/painted the wheels white but otherwise still looks the same This is when he first brought it home about 5 years ago.
