Mark, glad to see you up & around.
Greg, nothing like new meats on the ground.
Trav, glad to see your hanging in there.
You are probably right.....although I plan on keeping the 7.3 for a long lonnnnnng time! Just getting broke in with 204k miles, original turbo, original injectors. Best truck I've ever owned by FAR. I also installed some 8" HID lights on my winch bumper this summer, those things are insanely bright. Definitely OFF ROAD only

No but I have sleeping bags so if I want to travel just strap the sleeping bags to the Harley's handlebars and go out where ever I need. LOL
I just didn't have much of a usage so we put it up for sale or trade. We said best offer.
Here is the offers I got:
85 C10 Chevy 2wd regular cab short bed 383 stroker
75 C10 Chevy 4x4 regular cab long bed 350 4bolt main
95 Chevy astro van
90 bass boat
and this 90 F150 4x4 302 with a truck bed trailer that had a straight body.
To me it made more sense to go with the F150 since that is more of what we wanted/needed.

Howdy everyone! Been driving around trying to find local dirt to get the truck dirty in, but no luck. Looks like I'll have to drive an hour or so to get her dirty. Just bought a Bestop Supertop collapsible canvas shell. It's in the mail now, can't wait to throw it on the truck! Also have my brother bringing out my snow chains. I'm getting married in Yosemite in less than 2 months and I'll need the chains if there's any snow on the ground up there. Other than that, I'm ordering a missing part for my HID projectors for my headlights. I'm switching the chrome headlight bezels and chipped, painted over grill for all black pieces to go with the slightly smoked headlights I'm throwing the projectors in. I've had most of the parts for almost 2 years, it's about time I actually install them!!!

I just replaced some projection headlights, with very similar to stock lights for my 2000. I couldn't stand the projections, they put out very poor lighting, and everything was completely plastic on the mounts, and was chinese crap! I hope your brand of choice was better than mine, mine came off of ebay.....no clue on the brand though.
