Well i found a pickup that I'm interested in. Its an 82 F250 4x4 with an 300 and manual for $1445. That 300 is what caught my eye. The only problem is that its out by Rapid and I'm in the H20town, its a little to far for me just to go check out for fun. so what do you guys think.

Can't go wrong with the 300. Trent lives out that way. Might shoot him a PM... Otherwise I am heading to Rapid City on Monday again...

Depends on the body and what condition its in. If the 4x4 is working and engine is fine... It would be a good purchase.

Stock Show is making it quite the zoo around here (no pun intended). Can't tell it's a resession from the traffic and how busy everything is. Record number of foot traffic. Anyway, I'm off @ 3 our time, so if you need pics tell me where it is and I can see if I can find it and send them to you... Lots of trucks changing hands here this week by the look of it.

I got to rapid about 9 this morning. The trade didn't open until 10... So I killed some time at Menards. Nothing inspired me there...

No plans at all. Just work and sleep. Last night's fun was enough for me for this weekend.

Ya I'm going to have to wait on that pickup that i was looking at. Hopefully I find a better deal out there.

John Deere might be the next best place. Grossenberg has 3 locations, Winner, Pierre and Philip.
