    New to the channel, awesome to see this truck running. There are still a few 5ton work horses still in active duty. Have one from my last unit built in 1985 and still running. Fixing the mechanical fuel pump on these things is hell! Trying to get all the air out of each valve and the timing just right is my personal purgatory!

    During World War II Holden was making the 6x6 Blitz, and back in the 1960’s/70’s there were some of them left in North Queensland used by logging contractors. A friend of mine’s family owned one and I remember a drunken night finding out just how steep an incline it could get up. I have never since seen any vehicle that could climb seemingly impossible slopes like that old blitz could. 6x6 is awesome.

    When lived in Plainville I worked in the oil patch.There were a couple roads in Rooks County on the Saline river that were a bear to climb with my pulling unit.Some of them were oil lease roads that were tricky. But there was a county road that went north of the river towards Codell. One day i was climbing the hill called King Hill in my old GMC with a gas V8. I got partway up the steep hill and the truck decided to blow up. So we had to leave it on the side of the road until a tow rig could tow it out.
