Dodge Power Wagon

We were heading Downeast out of Cambridge in a  2016 Ram ProMaster Cargo van with all out stuff aboard. I liked that van, it was roomy and surprisingly nimble, and the driver's position is perched up high. Definitely a Euro-type van; it's sold in Europe as the Fiat Ducato. Stopped for coffee at the Kennebunk Service plaza and saw this earlier version of Dodge truckdom. I'm guessing mid-80's, a good looking truck. There weren't that many crewcabs around then; when I worked a (trail)crew in the Canadian Rockies (we just called them "the Rockies"), we rode out back with the shovels and wheelbarrows and rock drills, which was chilly by late October, way out there in Four Strong Winds country.
