    I love it. It's light weight, parts are cheap, easy to work on, and if I break it I can park it and fix it when time/money allows.

    Congrats on the home purchase. I hope to buy in Cali after my deployment next year. Trucks are fun but family and life goals are way more important. I'm glad to hear your doing well.

    finally had some time off work this weekend to get some stuff done... new lines, calipers, rotors and pads. oil and diff fluid change, outer tie rods, grill surround, replacing part of the bumper... nothing exciting but all stuff that needed to be done. i'll wrap it all up tomorrow and maybe go get some new tires and an alignment
