Nice truck. I'm looking for a truck like this too. An 86 Shortbed in Blue or Red, with little rust. It looks like I'd have to drive 500 miles to get one though.

Yeah -That's all good. You might not want to compare wages though. Everything comes with a price -pine needles included.

WTF? Are you from NY and posing as a guy from MO? YOUSE?

Mewhoiam stated in his post that he was in east Texas. Been there a few times- hence the pine-tree and wage references. I live in North Central Texas.
I try and keep geographical differences out of things and I'm naturally such a prick I don't want people to be able to track me down.
