Here's this past trip this was the good in Trucks,, Now for the BAD,, Pulled in 3 Times for DOT Inspections., Snowing up on Donner Pass in Calif. 9,000+ miles Via Mt Shasta, Calif., Vancouver Canada etc.. went to pick up a 76 in Vancouver Wash. and the EVIL BAY SELLER LIED, Truck was suppose to run, would not start, starter locked up, mufflers exploded wide open, then lied about truck not running in days, BUT the oil was warm and exhaust manifolds still warm, after 2 hours of us trying to get it started had to leave,, Just last nite finally got our deposit back, that's after running 8.5 hours backtracking for the POJ of a Truck. Then get back to Vegas to go to LA and got in touch guy with a truck in Kingman AZ. and finally called us after crossing the NEW scales in Calif. on I-15 crossed this back roads that is one of those little gray lines on the map 3 hours later get there and the SOB raised the truck up another 1000.00 and boy that hit a nerve after getting screwed, well he advertises in Hemmings so I will turn him in, especially we see him at Carlisle selling Truck Parts.. Only thing is the outcome below after little over 2 weeks on road and 9,000 + mile trip

I hope I always stay crazy, because I know if I ever become sane, it will drive me crazy.

Some people suck! I do think they are the minority, but they sure can ruin your day. You deserve better.
