Road trippin with too much stuff...

Just got back from a 7 state, 3100 mile journey in 7 days.
Got to meet up with some truck guys, hit up some junk yards, and a swap meet in northern texas. Weather was mostly good this year. (didn't get stuck in iowa for 2 1/2 days like last time)...
Away we go...
First hour and a half when i left was black ice... No fun.

First truck i found was an odd combo.

Had a buddy send me a link to a craigslist ad last fall. Had a different buddy about 4.5 hours away that was close to the item and went and picked it up for me. I grabbed it at his place on my way south. It was kind of part of the road trip, but not purchased on the trip...

Thats all for now, Enjoy and get out there and start finding this stuff! ( i can't find everything by myself...)

Sidewinder Winch, had one of them on my 72 Cheyenne Super SWB 4x4 years ago. Can't recall if I ever used it but it was there.

Great looking Trip! Black and hugger orange combo! Nice looking cabs with cab lights! Trim ring probably the one 72 Super has been looking for!

I had your number with me just in case. Other than the black ice day 1, all was good.

So does that mean that after many years of marriage they finally get used to, and accept it, or do you have to have one that’s understanding from the beginning? If it’s the latter I’m screwed:lol:
