O/T Locked 'Er Down

That old Chevy and I both might be old, but we'll still get the work done on half the fuel or less; thank ya very much. :>)

I looked long and hard at a Dodge 3500 dulie.

Their diesel tonner was $3K cheaper than the Ford 3/4 ton, but I needed something that would pull and last so went with the Power Stroke.

Probably should have bought another horse. :>)

Allan

What am I gonna do with that thing? Can't sell it; nobody would buy it. Can't use it; costs too darned much to run.

Only place it shines is in it's ride and when it's hooked on that trailer. Well, that and it sure shuts those Dodge boys up. :>)

Maybe I need to go into the hotshot business? Naw,that involves too many hours and I'm too old.

Guess it will just have to serve as a garage floor cover to keep the bird poop off the floor. :>)

Allan

My old brown Chevy costs $5K something. This one stickered for $51K. What's wrong with that picture anyhoo? :>)

Allan

The truck only comes out for heavy hauling now,

AMEM!. bout time you pulled the ol"girl out of the weeds. see all that harassing i gave you in the past must have worked. i get about 28 MPG with my little 82. but i sure miss my old fullsize.

You've lived a heck of a lot cleaner life than I too. :>)

Allan

If you're running 3.73's or even a 3.08, you're gonna be getting a lot better gas mileage.

Has 3:08 gears and I put an overdrive locker tranny in it. Usually runs in there at 18 to 20 if I drive like a sane man.

Sure beats the 13 on the other truck.

Although, I gotta fess up. That diesel is one heck of a nice rig and will pull the cleats right outta the hanger bay floor. :>)
