Reached a great milestone.

Well to most people this might seem stupid or dumb but to me I am excited. It has been a long 60 months and a convert from GMC to Ford but today I recieved in the mail my title to my 03 super duty.

I viewed it as some sort of achievement. So now that the truck has 90K miles it still looks and drives like new. I just had a state inspection and the guy who did the inspection commented on how new it looks.

I hope my truck gives me another 60 months of reliable service. The truck has been rewarded with semi-retirement. I now drive a company vehicle so it stays parked most days but I do drive it anytime I get the chance.

It is nice not to have a truck payment.

Drive it as much as you can! Inactive stuff breaks sooner and degrades more rapidly. True with people as much as trucks!

It IS nice not to have any payments. Congrats on your milestone.

Now go take a drive in it.

Congrats!!!! I know how you feel. I just got my title last week! What a great feeling. The dealer now calls me to tell me they need me to trade it in on a new one....lol I said sorry with only 43,000 miles on it I plan on keeping it for a long time.
