I have owned this truck for 7 years and have put on 130,000 miles. It was strong running until the engine started to give out at around 225,000 miles. It can still drive and putting a new engine it won't cost too much.

I drive this truck cross-country all the time. I have lived in it. It has served all of my backcountry travel and camping needs. I keep a tall topper shell on it and it holds all of my outdoor gear all of the time. I once lived up an unplowed road and constantly relied upon 4lo in low gear with chains, but it got around great. I have so many good years and miles and memories with this truck that I have to say it has been exactly what I've needed. I'm letting it get old but I'm not ready to give it up and I hope it can give me another good 50,000 miles. Here's to you, little truck buddy!
