This Oshkosh W705 is a pick-up truck — sometimes called a pickup or light utility truck — dating from 1945 and offered here in used condition from New Hampshire, USA. Oshkosh is a long-established American manufacturer with deep roots in producing heavy-duty and specialised vehicles for municipal, military, and industrial applications.
This particular example was originally built for the Town of Livingston, New York, and is configured as a 4x4 plow truck, giving it four-wheel drive capability suited to demanding all-weather and off-road use. The truck has since undergone a full restoration, which included sandblasting and repainting, and it is reported to run and drive in excellent condition.
Key performance figures confirmed by the seller include a maximum payload capacity of 16,000 pounds and a gross vehicle weight of 30,000 pounds, reflecting the heavy-duty nature of this machine despite its pick-up truck classification. Top speed is rated at 37 miles per hour.
The combination of its restored condition, four-wheel drive drivetrain, plow truck configuration, and documented municipal provenance makes this a notable example of mid-twentieth-century American working vehicle history.
