    Bought it in Alaska and drove down to Indiana over a 4 day trip through Canada. I slept in the bed under the topper that isn’t currently on. Took the all weather tires off and put some 275/65R18 Courser MXTs on it. Pretty sweet truck. Paid for, in full, with cash from busting my back.

    They don’t salt in Alaska, just sand and studded tires. I’ve crawled underneath it twice cleaning all the mud out that I put up underneath it and greasing the ujoints. Everything looks great except for a torn cv boot. No rust. 89k miles. The guy I got it from took really good of it. It’s had all of its maintenance done and oil changed regularly. I’m a mechanic by trade and take pretty good care of things. It’s just a good truck that should last me another 33 years until retirement.

    Congrats on the new truck along with doing it without a monthly payment. It makes doing future upgrades much more enjoyable.

    I was getting ~16mpg through the mountains and over 70mph and ~21mpg when I was doing the 55-60mpg. That little motor screams going up the mountains.
