This is awesome! I can't believe you found it and it looks great! Has anything been changed on it?

What do you guys suppose are the odds of that occurrence coming to pass...I'm guessing something like 1:10,000,000,000 or more.

Amazing to say the least, glad you found and got your truck back.

Re: How to find a truck I (regretfully) sold

It wasn't down the street either... Cleveland, OH to St Louis, MS are +/-560 miles apart. With stops and towing a truck that's like a 20 hour road trip? Incredible odds!

Re: How to find a truck I (regretfully) sold

Really cool story! And a darn nice looking truck. I'm happy for you, got goose bumps (yeah I admit it) when I read you found her just in the nick of time. It was meant to be.
