New guy from PA

Hi everyone. Long time viewer, follower; first time member.

I see so many nice builds on this site mine seems so common and plane.

I am originaly from SC, but live here in PA. During my recent family vist down in Charleston SC, I came across a 1990 Blazer. I feel bad for the seller for what he wanted but he needed the money and I feel I helped him out (that's how I'll remember it).

The only thing I've done thus far is a good cleaning and full tank of gas. I loaded the truck and trailer to the max and headed back home to PA. Not one problem during the drive (14 hours) I was very impressed and this brought my truck and I much closer, lol.

So from being in the south all it's life there is no rust and I guess my first step should be rust prevention. I've already spoted a Burb at the local junk yard with a Dana and a 14BFF, so now I'm thinking axel and lift for my baby.

Enough of my excitment, I just wanted to stop and introduce myself and my new baby, lol.

Re: New guy from PA

I didn't mind it when I first moved up here but now that I have to drive a big truck in it, it sucks lol.

This snow we just got is the worst thus far for me; getting to play in it with my new toy makes it a "LITTLE" less frustrating.

Handled great. I was just measuring a lift and 35's today for next winter, lol. If I go with the 35's I shouldn't have to shovel snow at all next winter.
