She is a beauty, I love the red/white two tone, and the crew dually, solid look. She's got potential for sure.

That is sad to hear man. She's a beaut.
I'm getting the grief for my old girl too, if things keep going the way they are I might have to trade her in for a I6 bronco or something myself.

Yeah, I would miss my truck something fierce if I had to sell her, she's had her hiccups along the way, but never when I truly needed her (white-out blizzards, dragging dead trucks out of the bush, getting a buddy off the side of the mountain to a hospital) has she failed me.
But a bronco would keep me happy till I could get another IDI.

This was my 9th time there in 3 years, and it's a 8-9 hour drive

Interesting way he fixed it indeed. Such a beast though, feels awesome to run up and down the field, forest trails and up skyhill in this thing, and the evil beaten up look gives it so much character





Heres the vid I made for it.
