Wow....there are so many IDIs that nobody wants anymore, I cant believe how much rust and stuff you guys suffer from. If those IDIs are the best in NE USA....then they need maintence classes. Granted my truck needs front tie rods soon im guessing but regardless....4x4 shifter arm broke off?! This is sad haha.

I have a truck, that came from Minnesota, the Twin Falls plant in 1984, it has never left the state of montana haha. It has no rust on the body. No screwed up paint from salted roads. I picked a good place to live. Just move somewhere it dont get salt on the roads. Like....Wyoming, or Idaho, or Colorado...just not montana, im proud of my 900k pop in the entire state.

On the 4th of July, we were in Cody Wyoming at the big Rodeo they have there.

One of the best Rodeos i've seen in a long time!


We stayed over night in the Wal-Mart parking lot there in Cody. We took a walk before going to bed around 11 at night, and I counted 82 campers parted over night in the Wal Mart parking lot..... and some were still arriving after we went to sleep.


Of course I HAD to take pictures of that epic free campground

Man I wish I would have seen that first one before I bought mine. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE my truck. But I really wanted a sc/lb F350 instead of an ec/lb F250... Oh well, happened for a reason I guess.
