Truck in temp storage

Took the truck for a quick cruise last night, topped off fuel and put some stabil in the tank. Truck will be in temp storage for a bit....time for another deployment. After 21 years the wife and I are hoping this will be the last one.

Wanted to say thanks for all the suggestions and advice...it all helped immensely in getting my "drivable project" off to a great start. Connectivity on the ship is sporadic at best but I'll try to log in occasionally to get my truck fix!!

Re: Truck in temp storage

I leave for deployment at the end of the month as well. Be careful out there and keep the comms to your family first.

Thank you all for your service.

I kind of understand what you all are going through since I was in the military during the Vietnam Conflict.

Thumbs up Re: Truck in temp storage

There wasn't an Internet when I was in. (72-80) Would have been nice.

Fair winds and calm seas.
Thank you for your service.
