Bought it on the side of the road, on a total whim, for 6500 in cash on a sunday afternoon on the way to pick up my boat from CT. Drove it all the way up to conneticut, sea-trialed, signed the boat over, and drove it back to SE virginia - got home at nearly 4am. I don't think I can complain about the truck at all.

One year later, one year wiser - I don't think I'd try that little adventure again.

Here's mine. Nothing special but it gets the job done. Gotta say, I'm a bit jealous of a few trucks in this thread.
