Truck is sold.

Eh... I decided to let it go. I'm looking for a diesel... for mpg and bio-diesel alternatives... a crew cab, and a long bed.

The Ext cab was good for stuff, but not for buddies...

The short bed was great for stuff... but not for real stuff (including my camper)

So I'm going to be looking for a land yacht, and some banks goodies, and in the meantime will enjoy 30mpg out of my S15 I took in on trade plus cash.

I delivered the truck Friday evening... later that night he had it painted.

Truck was all red... he put a silver stripe down the body line and blacked out the bottom. Looks good.

I'll still be around... hopefully with a bigger truck soon though. Keep me posted if you know of anything. Black preferrably, but most of the specs I listed, could be trade-offs for better specs

Wow!!! Well if the truck did not meet your needs, I guess it had to go.

Mine has been a total compromise from day one, but it does meet all my needs that I use it for. Just not perfectly. I would need 3 different vehicles to perfectly meet my needs.

Good luck in your search and let us know when you find your "land yacht".

BTW, can I still come and play in your yard when I get my wheeling rig???

Of course... and there is some great stuff down the road now, I didn't get a chance to get my F250 stuck in it, but my chevy sank like a rock.

That is classic!!!

I will have to let you know when I get a wheeling vehicle. tiny1 found one for me, but it was beyond my budget (more like no budget ).

Keep us post on the new truck prospects.
