Don't bother, I know I am whining, but when you pay this much for
a rig and have very simple problems that cost alot to fix, it sucks

Re: So what Now?

I have not read all the responses but here goes.

I have a buddy who builds great cars- BB trucks, BB Camaros, BB and SB Corvettes. He then procedes to drive the he!! out of them. They are just cars. Scratches can be fixed. Busted parts can be replaced. He builds 540CI blown twin motored boats. Same thing.

Take 1 day a week and drive the green blazer everywhere. Sun - rain - no hail. It's just a car. A very big part of your life (time and $$) went into finishing it and I'm telling you to enjoy it. Thank goodness it's not mine. It definitely wouldn't be done if it were mine.

Be reasonable but enjoy it. Look at Mudder. He puts that 4x4 deep in the MUD. It cleans up.

Good luck - Bob - and enjoy!!!!

That's part of the issue, it's done enough for now.
Meaning there's other thing's/other trucks to deal with that currently have bigger needs.

So it sits until we get some "special" time to go out and enjoy it.
