Nice video Hot Duck. Now maybe I'll quit drooling over that PB tow rig so much !!!
Really, how nice is the PB 330? Did you look at or drive any other mediums? Conclusions?
Post another picture of it.

There are a lot of nice medium duty trucks out there and I think that my second choice would have been the Ford Supercrewzer. That was a really nice truck too and it had the same 3126 Cat engine. The Pete was the choice because of the cab. There are some times when going through towns that I wish I had gone with a shorter truck, but overall I am happy with the Pete.
Here are a few old pics of the Pete and boat together before everything was lettered. I don't have any recent pictures of the truck and boat together. Here is a picture of the Supercrewzer too. We had the use of one for a race a few years ago as a promotional deal and it was a really nice truck!

Thanks for the info. What I also like best about the Pete is the extended Crew cab, flat floor, and the outside drawer storage system. Less climbing for luggage and supplies.
I also like the Supercrewzer and the International RXT haulers. The wife doesn't like the hooded look of the Supercrewzer. I don't mind it. Looks much better than the utilitarian metal bodies.
You definitely have a show-stopping rig there. Congrats!!
