    Well my truck was in a wreck, rebuilt, then sat in a lot for 5 years. It may not have many miles but it’s been through a lot

    I got a fly in mine from a trip out in ocotillo. Just sick it up and enjoy the little guy, makes for a good story when people are in the truck.

    P.S. - I named mine, Marvin the Fly.
