The other day we packed the kids into the pickup and had a regular "Griswold" family Christmas tree adventure!
I've always gotten a real kick outta how small the bed is with these crews... and I've been the butt end of a few jokes too but this was one was a real doozie when we put the tree 'in the bed' of the truck...
I think it was around 15 feet? I trimmed it to 12 feet in the end... (for reference, the top log is just a few inched below 13')...

I hope that was a hint to yourself to store it somewhere. I do not recall seeing many CCs that color.HenryJ wrote:Wonderful crewcab Christmas shot!

Hobie's truck was that color. Put black wheels , lightbar and sliders on it and they would be twins

Hobie was building his Toy when I arrived. I remember seeing the photos now.
