Yes they are. My friend, Bruce King still has a couple for sale in San
Francisco.
At a glance that 5 ton has a Marine Corps cargo bed on it ( they are
slightly wider than the old beds to accommodate their containers ). You will
also notice that the truck is taller and hence more top heavy. be real
careful hitting the corners.
Changing a tire on one is an ordeal, especially on the side of the freeway
at night by yourself. The hard part is moving that big wheel around ( my
body still hurts from the episode Saturday ).

Aren't those wheels and tires about 460 LBS. a piece.
