The JY I go to is like that. It hurts to look at some of the stuff in the yard that they part out. I have seen things that other than needing a motor or tranny, were in better shape than anything I drive. And its not like my stuff is in bad shape either!

Yeah but it is a 150, the same as what I already have, plus it's on the "other" side of the country from me...

The one waiting to go in the junk yard is a 250, and what pisses me off even more is the paint job is one of those where it is two tone, but mostly white with tan trim up front and up the front of the cab only, not your traditional two tone

In honor of the rednecks around where I live, I broke out my favorite shirt. It says "Redneck Entertainment Center", and shows a beer keg and bug zapper.
Unfortunately, the idiots around here don't get it...........
