Just wondering if anyone else gets "Driver's Anxiety" when running their old trucks? As I am still taking my truck on test drives and venturing farther and farther from home, I always seem to be thinking about breaking down and how I would troubleshoot the issue. Nothing has gone wrong (knock on wood), but little things, noises, rattles, squeaks,... I'm always listening. Yesterday driving down the street, I heard a noise and while trying to pin point it I noticed the Life Flight helicopter landing at the hospital. I didn't remember how loud those things were. Or, I heard some scraping noise developing, but it turned out to be the car next to me dragging their plastic belly pan. I guess I should be listening to my truck, but need to relax - chill out a little and enjoy this 80 year old beast.
