What a cool topic!
I am only 4 years older than my truck.
It is American made, designed by hard working folks, built by hard working folks and bought by hard working folks.
Every "blemish" it carries is from honest hard work... no excuses.
Working on the truck is like therapy. The world seems so crazy fast paced now, but my truck seems to be a shelter from all of that. It is a place to go back in time, to a simpler time, where form followed function, where less is more.
