The keen observer may spot a Timmy's cup on the Dashboard...

And the reason why I'll never own a 2WD (hint: it's 'cause of all the stupid @#$&ing snow!)

Looks solid, I agree on the stupid snow and having a 4wd, especially up here.

Pretty good. There's a small tear in the seat (separation, really, from the seat bottom to the seat side) where the driver's been dragging his ass in an out for thirty years. Carpet is good. Dash has a couple of fine cracks. I was trying to polish out some white spots on the "brushed stainless" display inlay and I made things a bit worse.

Looks like a great starting point... far from a "project" anyway

Thanks for your service, Eric!

Was kinda lookin for old school hd look to stay with the truck. I have some extreme 24 bolt hummer wheels in stock {h1 humvee} look great but they dont clear the brake area.

Check out some swap meets or Craig's list, I got some old 8 lug Hurricane aluminum wheels for $50 for the set of 4 at a swap meet this fall.
