Re: what do you use your truck for?

Mine is a BIG paper weight right now. Pretty much just takes up space because I don't have time to spend with her....

Re: what do you use your truck for?

I look at mine as investments . I think they will always be worth what I pay for them .If not , I wont sell them until they are . Better than the 51% the stock market has lost since August .

Talking Re: what do you use your truck for?

I bought mine new in june of 1987 and it was my DD for the first 5/6 years of it's life but as it progressed into what it is today it became a weekend cruiser and show truck it's done 2 hotrod power tours it's towed just about everything you can think of and i have even done some offroading with her so that covers all the selections on the list.

And as for the "other" selection she served as a shaggin wagon too.....

Re: what do you use your truck for?

Mine is getting setup to be a daily driver, and it will also be used to tow my new 5th wheel when I get it.





I also have a 52' tilt deck goose neck flat bed tripple axle trailer in the works I will be lugging around with it. Need to get it finished first though.
