    Thanks!

    I ran Donahoes before the OME setup and loved them. If you have the extra money go for the C/Os.

    Man it almost looks like your rear frame is bent down in the last pic... bed not in line with the cab :notsure: could also just be an optical illusion.

    Nice lights and snorkel, I've been kicking around the idea of buying one soon too

    As you've learned, this is a 1st gen thread, but I'll answer anyway. There is not much consensus, or so I've heard, about when to replace. Some people change with spark plugs, some people do it every 30K or 50K, a lot do it only if they have reason to believe there is an issue with it, and some people just replace it because it's old af.

    Ah no. I meant where I found the dead body. The camping spot is down logging roads in British Columbia so you'd have a bit of a drive to get here. While on the subject. I found out the guy was 33 years old. Died of a heart attack. Gf mom's neighbor knows the family. Exchanged phone number with the parents of the guy I found. I talked with them and gave them closure. Told them everything they asked for. It was his favorite spot to go. I let them know he looked peaceful. Said a prayer for him. That's his spot now.

    It is sad. I'm just glad I was the first one to find him. A lot of messed up things happened that weekend. A fire being one of them the next day and not letting anyone else up the road. So if I didn't find him who knows how long he would have been there or what would have happened. I can handle that stuff and I'll be fine. I just feel for the parents.

    These trucks are about 80 years old in human years.

    I'd imagine, at that age, our rear ends will be sagging and misaligned and parts of our front ends will be leaning in weird directions too.

    I have the same impulse red and really dig the black tailgate combo. Did you paint yours or just replace it?

    Nice flex :thumbsup:
