Lol!
Nope, not a chance. wink

Decided to take her out to my buddy's place about fifteen miles away, at something near highway speeds. First time in probably 30 years she's been over 35!

Then something shorted under the dash. Isolated that, hotwired the ignition... and the battery was too weak to restart her. Ever try roll-starting a 6000lb truck with ridiculously low gears? Doesn't work well. But a friendly sheriff's deputy came by and had a jump pack. So fired her off on 12v and went on to my friend's place. Charged the battery for an hour, came back.

Ok, lesson learned: no road trips 'til I do the wiring and 12v conversion!

If a 'truck' is only used to haul butts to the mall, then it's not a truck - it's a car with a roadster trunk.

Old, rusty and ugly - might be me or my fleet. You decide!
