There are enough members from the dry dessert

states could help you find one, you’re a days drive from some prime hunting grounds! Good luck.

PNW: East of the Cascades, it's desert...dry as Death Valley in the summer.

What state has dry dessert? Have you ever tried to eat a dry cake?

Sorry Steve, I couldn't resist.

Happy Easter to all and your families.

I have found a different truck listing. Is this something that is a better option?

From a rust stand point there is no comparison. Actually from many standpoints, it looks like a tremendous candidate, with all the appropriate cautions mentioned regarding the other one, go drive it and see how it works. Nice easter egg you found there.
The name of the road is a little ominous, ha ha ha
