Yep, good stuff! I didn't have a car, we lived in farm country so I had a little tractor.

Neat to see the yellow fleet optioned truck "in the wild." The green truck is in Yellowstone and boy do I remember the bears begging for food when you used to tour the park. Last edited by 1project2many; 08-10-2019 at 04:06 PM. |
