Frankentruck has been doing well lately, but I keep coming up with new ways to work the old rig. A couple days after getting married, we ended up buying a boat

Re: Frankentruck
Had to move some furniture over the weekend. This is why I love long bed trucks!

Re: Frankentruck
Your wedding pics put a big old smile on my face and a warm feeling in my heart! I love that your truck is like a member of the family and that it is still serving as a truck! I hope you and your bride have a fantastic first Thanksgiving of marriage!

Re: Frankentruck
I have been daily driving Frankentruck for a couple weeks while my wifeÂ’s car is getting some repairs I didnÂ’t want to do. Even with a few 20 degree mornings, no problem firing up and taking me to work. Unfortunately, the flasher for the turn signals died and the turn signal cancelling cam was real loose. Popped the steering wheel off on Saturday morning and got that somewhat fixed. The switch does not want to stay on when indicating right, and will sometimes stop indicating when switched left unless I push it a little further to the left. Maybe I just didnÂ’t get that cam positioned properly, but at least I can still make the lights blink

Re: Frankentruck
Very cool.
We don't have many dirt roads left around here anymore.
