On The Road & Almost Finished

I got my truck on the road last week, after 10 yrs down! I hate to say, but it was a rush job at the end because of deadlines I had to meet. I left Calif. on Monday and the truck is now in Indiana. I took a plane back over the weekend, & now I'm loading up the 1 ton crew cab & 5th wheel and we are heading to Tennessee. GOOD BYE CALIFORNIA!

Here's a few pics (I still have things to do yet, of course):

I'm trying to change my avatar, but it looks awful when resized to 100 pixels. Is there a secret to this? Thanks

I'd prolly wait 10 years to get something that nice looking. Hell, mine's been 7 years and looks like poop! I really like the tailgate!

The bed lid is from Gaylords in Long Beach. They put it on last week, and I love it. Sure is nicer than the snap-on that was on it before.

Nice truck!

&

Welcome to Tennessee!

I hope that you find a good place to live. I'm from the Franklin area (SW of Nashville; about 20 miles out), but now live in Lebanon (about 30 miles due East of Nashville).

Drop me a PM, maybe we can get together. Got to make new Tennesseans feel welcome, ya know!

OK, here's a bigger avatar pic, but the pics still don't look as good when they are resized. Yes, the wheels are Centerlines.

Thanks
