anybody else see something odd about the tilt bed lifting
mechanism??
it's just a straight black pipe ....

now, on all the dumptrucks i've seen, there are usually several
nested hydraulic cylinders. that pipe doesn't seem to be
segmented at all ... and it's way too long to retract into the
toolbox below without hitting the ground underneath the bus.

all of which makes me wonder if it's any kind of 'dumptruck' at
all ... or just someone who cut the bed off his pickup and can
prop it up with a pipe. :(
