Very nice! I was in Paris back in May 2012. I told my wife that I could live there....but I'd have to have my c10! Is your truck loved by the locals there?

welcome to the board from Texas...very nice truck, what is that in the back of your truck....maybe bolted to the tailgate.....

MAK191 · 11-09-2012, 09:00 PM

Nice truck. I bet that gets some attention over there.

Ole dollar, that thing on the tailgate is a padded cover for when you put a long board in the bed. It keeps the board from getting banged around on the tailgate.
