^ True.

My truck needs brakes, trans work, and a ton of fuel system work because I left it parked trying to ride out the gas crisis.

That sucks! Hate to see you let the truck go after all you have done to it. Hope things get better for you soon.

Wow that sucks. If you want you can give it to me.. lol. I was wodering why not much has been posted lately. Hope times pick up.

Well nothing writen in stone but as of right this minute i still own and theres not "For sale" sign in it. i really don't want to sell it. how long could it sit being started and moved around my drive way before it's just not worth it? i just need to weigh the options.

[GmtGmt]

its depends on long your thinking its going to be sitting.
a year or 2 is max

before you put it away grease it up in the cab corners, doors, rockers frame with some good undercoating grease and change the antifreeze, top op on every fluid, pump up the tires to like 60 psi, clean the brakes and grease them so the pads wont rust stock to the mounting surface and just regular take it out for spin around the block and get it to operating temp

this might be an option.
