    Even though I found a 2021 MT V6 AC Sport with only 6k on the clock, If I could find a low miles non rusting MT 1st gen like my old ones I'd be right there. The 3rd's are really big. And for those who use double low the lever on the floor is much nicer than the little switch on the dash.
    In Maine, it's not about the mileage it's about the rust.

    Nice truck; 3000 miles away, miles more than I'd like but if this one was when my 1st gen failed up inspection a couple of years ago I'd have been right on it.

    Clean as a jellybean! :bowdown: 1st Gens rock :thumbsup: never gone through car washes - hand washed since 2004. Always pull over to talk to other 1st gen owners. Built to last and well-engineered.

    Thanks man. It can be high maintenance sometimes, but taking care of it is a labor of love.
