    Just got her back after 1+ year. Long story but the 3rz got a rebuild and we’re back on the road for hopefully 310k more miles. I bought this truck with 2 miles on it in September 1996. I do expect that fine fella in the pic to attempt to steal it from me IMG_3643.jpg IMG_3642.jpg

    Looks like a well-deserving lad who takes good care of his things... I'd just give it to him! ;)

    Nice truck -- I also have a green single cab, but much rougher than yours.
