    Did you have to get your frame replaced?

    Yep, 183k. It runs great and haven’t had any engine related issues at all. Change the oil and filter every 3k with penzoil and a Toyota genuine filter. It’s a good engine for sure. I’d buy another one.

    The PO of my truck had no idea the steering wheel was telescoping... I showed him while test driving the truck.
    :facepalm:

    If I were to hypothetically buy your truck, I'd fix the A/C.

    Same here...

    I'm surprised though, since you live in Massachusetts.

    I’m going to... but it’s almost January and I have no intentions of using it for a while. Probably when spring rolls around I’ll replace the line and charge the system

    Would you say it blows pretty cold? The A/C in my truck numbs fingers and hardens nipples!

    It doesn’t blow cold at all. There’s no refrigerant in it so once the line with a hole is replaced and I charge it, I’m sure it will harden nips

    I know it's not blowing cold now, but what I mean was that I've talked to other 2nd Gen owners who are less than happy with the A/C in their trucks...

    I'm curious...

    Can you correctly identify the car in my avatar picture? Not many people can...

    If you're referring to the modern day Phantom, that isn't a real Rolls. That's just a BMW in drag...

    The Rolls-Royce in my avatar pic is a 1984 Camargue. Possibly the most criticized postwar Rolls ever, but it really is a beautiful car!

    Cruise control is super easy to install. I think I bought mine off eBay for around $15
