Default wild jetski lake delivery vehicle.

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, nobody could possibly confuse an F-250 for a Freightliner;
did you mean to say F-650, perhaps? 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?

Custom body, and wished I had the camera along. Just saw it mostly from the
back end side.

Where did you see this? 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.

Saw it while up on California's Mt. Diablo state park doing a little hiking
at Rock City.

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

But it is a mountain with no lake. There are a couple of campgrounds.
