It now lives in Phoenix area so it should remain dry and rust free!

It was on the show room floor , and acually they told me it wasn't for sale as it was a show truck ..they offered to order me one or sell another long box to me and me being young maybe a bit smart mouth .. told them or I will go to the next town and buy one even if I have to order it.. They said wait a minute and went and talked to the owner of the dealership and came back with,, " step into my office as you have just bought yourself the truck "
