Time to say goodbye
Love my truck but I don't get attached to to much other than my wife and my dog.
Sold my truck today to a guy from France. 6or 7 years finished 12,000 miles and tons of fun. |

Re: Time to say goodbye
So, more satisfaction building than keeping and maintaining.
I have the same problem. What is next. That truck looks like it brought a pretty penny |

Re: Time to say goodbye
Just remember that ownership isn't a requirement to hang around with this brigade. Just liking AD and TF trucks is enough.

12k miles on it so it was just getting to the point for a freshen up to get it to the quality I want. Didn't have it in me with just working out the bugs on the burb, half way finished with the 56 build and a promotion at work that has me on the road 10-15 days a month. Besides I put what I think was a stupid number on it and it sold. |

Re: Time to say goodbye
Can't argue with that. Whereas i have somewhat of an emotional attachment to mine, If someone agreed to my stupid number it would be gone too.
