General Vehicle Comments -I have owned this truck since 1998 when I was 14 years old. This was my first vehicle and was the truck that I drove when I was in High School and out of high school.(In High School I had it painted Bright Blue with Silver Stripes). When I bought the truck, it was in bad shape, needing everything to get it road worthy, including body work. Over the years I have out A LOT of time into this truck and will never sell it. I have installed 4 Engines in this truck since I have owned it. (2) 4.3L V6's , a 5.0L 305 V8 and a 5.7L 350 V8. Hopefully this one will last a long time!
-Eveything in this truck works 100%--Heat, Ice Cold A/C, Everything!! 100% Dependable, --I would drive this Anywhere!! |
