Enjoyed meeting all of you. Expect me to return,if only to lurk among the boards reading your comments.

Now it's time to crawl in the truck and head for Pa. This Atlas bedbug is getting awful tired of carrying furniture.

Be home for the weekend...

Everybody have a nice, safe week out there. (and oh, Weave...the man is still hung on 12,500 for the one on e-bay. He called again yesterday. )

I like all that truck has on e-bay except its engine. And as you all know, the engine is the heart of your truck. 230 HP is not enough. My old FL70 had a 250 HP cummins, and even that struggled at times. The CAT 3126 is a parent bore engine, and was not designed for use as a highway mill. I have yet to see a CAT 3126 go much past 600k miles without having to be replaced, at a cost of near $15k, which is more than the whole truck is worth. That one is getting close with 450k on the clock. I'd invest your cash on something else.
