I think Mike and I are in the same boat...

A buddy of mine called me up yesterday and told me they just took an 83 Crew Cab in on trade. It is a 1 ton, 454, TH400, dually Silverado etc... I've wanted one of these for a while to use to pull my car trailer. They are asking $3500 for it and I think its worth it, but I don't think I need all the trucks I already have! Just like Mike, I need to be talked out of this one!

Don't force me into buying another 73-87 just to keep up inventory with you two clowns (and Chris too!)...cause I'll do it!!!

Maybe the guy will do a partial trade on the Indy hauler.

$3500 for that truck is a STEAL!

Seriously, you guys gunning for chris's title of "owned way too many 73-87s in life" ? LOL sorry but I think your asking the wrong bunch of people to talk you outa the truck. The only argument I can make to not buy it is think of the HP you can build into one of your motors with $3500

That's what I'm afraid of, having the record for the most trucks that all need something...

That's actually a really good deal for that truck. I'd like to talk you out of it, but I just can't. I can't afford all these trucks, so I try and live vicariously through you guys.

That's a hell of a deal!! I would grab it as well. You already said you want something like this for your car hauler. I'd grab it
