    Many here just cycle through these rides having enjoyed the moment and head out for a whole new ballgame...I've always hung onto stuff for awhile but I get the yearning for change...there's so many opportunities and Lloyd's sure exposed to that with his type of expertise...how's the Missus's truck...maybe it's next in the focus...haven't checked it out lately...it was getting close...

    So is he going to come up with a name for the new truck or are we just going to refer to it as "the missus's truck?:cool:

    I've been trying to find a picture of it, there was a only little fender shot in a video. Maybe they got "cancelled"!
    Lloyd, hope it's all good on your end.

    That toyota looks like one of the ones that had defective frames,here in canada they had a major recall on them,toyota had to either buy them back or replace the frames under them,cost them millions.The scrapyards here were full of them,the frames would rust out just behind the cab and snap off,they looked like a dump truck with the box tilted. harvey

    Lmao! Yeah that ain't gonna happen. I bought 3 trucks, did the overwhelming majority of the work, and still paid her $1500 to take it. It's my truck.

    You guys keep an eye open for a set of chrome reverse or smoothies! Gotta be in my budget range. I want it to look like the truck I built for my son. 20180803_203132.jpg
