Got my Marti report!

Finally got around to getting a Marti report on my truck. Went the medium route, the super deluxe one was more than I wanted to spend. Pretty happy with it, but it didn't tell me a whole lot of new info, except that it's a rare color combo on an already rare truck.

Rouge, that paint came out shiny! Looks great. Thanks for the help on my color codes. I only wish I could rub out my Ginger glow to look as good as yours. It unfortunately has almost no paint on sections of the door and hood.

My truck is finally the reliable daily driver I hoped it would be. It is a joy to drive and I always have a big smile on my face when I walk up to it parked somewhere, I can't get over how great looking these trucks are!

I recently moved from Dallas to Wichita Falls, where I bought a 7100 sq ft downtown warehouse, lots of room for all my toys. Life is good!

Today I am installing a new hitch on my truck.

I'm sure we'd all love to envy that space. Please post pictures, guided tours, etc. That will enhance the envy.

X2 on what Flowney said. Were all eyes and ears anxious to here about these new endeavors. We are in the midst of moving ourselves. Down sizing the house and up sizing the pole barn. Ha. Cant get in to the new house until late November so living at deer camp till then. Oh well. Truck looks great.

Thanks flowney and hickory for your kind words.
This warehouse had a loading dock, I had a ramp poured so I can drive up into it, Dan Tanna-style.

Just installed my new hitch setup, and I'm happy with it except wish it didn't hang down so far below my bumper. Tomorrow I'll do the wiring.
