I'm keeping all my parts crossed for your buddy but otherwise, good luck with your new toy. I know a lot of fuel and compound turbocharging will allow you to rotate the earth so new mexico ends up next to new jersey.Nick

Dammed fine truck there. A buddy of mine has that same truck. It makes a great hauler.
A few quarters could make that truck look a lot better..Scott

I like it clean better than randomly dirty. But after a hard day's work if it's dirty, that's good.Nick
