    HF sells a service toolset that is slim compared to open ends and has the right sizes.

    As you head north, you'll be going through cotton country and the delta; soybean fields, rice fields, and the duck clubs.

    Ain't much to see down there in LA - Lower Arkansas. Just get through it as quickly as possible without getting a ticket.

    that is what i am saying
    nothing too crazy, just a peaceful & easy carefree looking truck

    its nothing like what I've been trying to take care of

    it even has 2 doors which make it a real truck! not some 4door 'wannabe' half suv/truck type

    mine does not fall into the 1st gen category, sort of a leftover from the Toyota pickup days of the early 90s

    i remember driving US65 in '98, that is one crazy twisted road with many roadside attractions (at least it was back then lol)
    got me a real nice souvenir, a fugazi tommy hilfiger watch on my journey through there

    Its all in the purpose. I wanted a comfortbale highway cruiser with 4x4 for the one or two snows we see in NC. If I had wheeling in mind, I wouldnt have bought this truck. It was/is too clean, and too few miles on it for me to go beating it up. Looking back, I shouldve given more thought to a double cab for the ability to carry people. But regardless, I like my truck and dont regret buying it.

    Are you going to take I20 to Minden LA, Magnolia, Prescott then north on I30 to HS or go the Texarkana route?

    Aside from looks and interior layout, theres nothing similar between the early or later first gens and the pickups. Far better tech.
