While having a picnic lunch today, we see a big, really nice looking truck
go by us in the state park (no lake around). Is maybe an f350 or a freightliner (not a good look at the front end) with a custom body sort of like a flatbed, and has two jetskis on the back with a roller system, that probably extends to launch the skis. Truck is designed for hauling one thing. Jetskis Bill |

Although both the F-650 and any Freightliner would be overkill for such a task; an F-250 would do just fine, IMO. Any chance you have a photograph? -- frosty |

I saw something just like that on my way to Laughlin a few years ago out on I40 in the middle of the desert. It was night, but as I passed him and my headlights lit him up, I too thought it was way cool. I'm pretty sure it was an F650 and not only did it have the skis on the customer bed/launcher thing, but it was towing a pretty good size powerboat. I remeber thinking if I ever hit it real big and had money to burn, that would be the coolest setup. |

There's a campground very close to Rock City, Oakgrove, or Oak something. |
