Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
I finally moved into my house. Did a bunch of full loads in the truck. Had to drive it in the snow on the first day, but work needed to get done. Truck never complained once. Adding a throttle control knob sure helps starting in cold weather!

Drove it to the garage in the background to get a wheel alignment.

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
Is your truck a long bed with a portion cut off from the rear of the bed?

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
Yeah, I guess it kinda looks like it from that angle, but, no, it's a new, unmodified short bed from LMC.

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
It fits great. The beds around here are few, tend to be expensive, so I went the LMC route. Total was around $1300 delivered.

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
I went to a junkyard with Frankentruck this morning. First time I've pulled a trailer with Frankentruck. It was a lot of fun, but trying to back up the trailer is making me rethink my choice of staying with manual steering

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?
Drove up to Commerce today for the swap meet and got some parts I needed for the truck. Ended up finding more than what I needed though as usual

Took it out to a small car gathering last night. Woman was on the street corner snapping pictures. She got this one of me. It's at 3 3 drop
