    Hey y'all,

    Just picked up this 1995 Regular Cab with 99,000 miles for 10k. A little scared that I overpayed, but I couldn't help myself. The interior is pristine, the exterior has some scratches and the hood and roof are missing a good bit of clear coat. Frame has no rust, which I know is a big problem in the early models. However, there is a small patch welded onto the underside of the frame by the rear left wheel, so there must have been a patch of bad rust there at some point.

    Welcome to tw!

    Looks like a nice truck!

    Judging from the background and the yall, I'm guessing you might be from the south? What part?
