There will be a tipping point where the "budget truck" turns into a reliable and useful truck. Most of us have had to spend some money on upgrades or repairs in order to achieve that status, but it is well worth it in the end. We have zero concerns about taking our truck cross country towing heavy.

One of these days you will be done with the "have to" list and move on to the "want to" list.

Sounds like you are invested in the truck financially and emotionally, like most of us are. Keep at it, and it will be a great vehicle in your inventory capable of accomplishing a lot.

Thank you for your service!

Thank you for yours and your thoughts and advice thus far Sir.

The United States Marine Corps did far more for me than I could ever do for her! In a time where people feel entitled because they served... I’m just lucky The Corps would take me.

Good Luck and GOD speed to all our troops and all those that have served. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all of you, Rye.
