Sorry to hear about your friends bad luck. Fortunately never saw one of these trucks that couldn't be replaced but the friend and family----thank the lord they are OK. -
-Just lost a good buddy last week~he was one of those guys who loved everyone, would give you anything, and no matter how crappy you felt, would make you laugh ~~~would give up my truck for him in a heartbeat! Things happen--sometimes we don't know why. I'm still trying to figure out why. Huck |
