Best Classic Trucks for Towin’ in Winchester

Hey y’all, it’s Tennessee Truck Revival—where we’re keepin’ classic rigs rollin’ with Middle Tennessee grit. I’m from Tullahoma, where my great-grandpa’s ’76 Ford Ranger—blue and white—hauled hay past Motlow College, and my ’83 Dodge D150 three-speed towed barns to Shelbyville, like I shared in my tow fails post. Winchester’s hills and AEDC loads need tough classic trucks for towing. Here’s the best for 2025, plus budget gear to keep ‘em haulin’ from Lynchburg to Highway 55.

Truck 1: ’73-’87 Chevy K20
The K20, from my K20 post, tows 7,000 lbs with a 350 V8. Fix hitches with a tow hitch ($50) and torque wrench ($30), per my tow post. A multimeter ($20) checks trailer lights. Shelbyville swaps sell K20s for $10K, per my values post.

Truck 2: ’65-’79 Ford F-250
My Ranger’s kin, like the ’65 F-250 post, hauls 8,000 lbs with a 351 V8. Secure loads with a tow strap ($25) and shackle hitches ($15). A wrench set ($20) tightens bolts. Winchester barns hide F-250s for $8K, per my junkyard post.

Truck 3: ’80-’86 Dodge D150
My D150 tows 6,000 lbs—tough for its size. Add a trailer brake controller ($40) for heavy loads, like my tow post. Test tires with a tire pressure gauge ($10). Lynchburg deals start at $6K, per my trends post.

Gear Up and Tow
Avoid my tow fails post mistakes—use tow chains ($30) for safety and a work light ($20) for night checks. Total cost? $100-$150 to tow like a pro. Your rig’ll haul Winchester loads or shine at AEDC meets.
