I bought this truck from a very close friend, who is the original owner, and also a certified master mechanic. As my first full-sized truck, and also my first American-made vehicle, I immediately fell in love with every aspect of it including the size, the color, the V8 engine, the way he engine sounds, the power, and various amenities. Amenities include stereo system, weather control system. daytime running lights, magnificent power steering, the layout under the hood, and the extended cab. I've never had a truck that runs or sound better than this truck and his engine.

I purchased the vehicle used and drove it as a daily driver for five years and have kept it for hauling and work for another five. It does not have the latest technology of course, but what it does have works well and keeps going. I did have to do some repairs over the years, but it is also easy to work on and easy to maintain. The only issue that I have not kept on top of is the A/C. It has not worked for quite some time.
