this is the second sub I've owned now, the first was an "85 1/2ton 4X4 that I bought with about 63k on it, and drove to well over 200K!
I bought this one here, a 3/4ton 4X4 from the second owner three years ago, with about 86K and it now has 117K. Just stuck a starter in it over the weekend, no symptoms, up and died without a warning!
I took a trip to Oregon with two friends and our five bird dogs in my old '75 Int. Scout for ten days, were packed in like sardines, and decided then, my next ride would be a sub and been driving them ever since '90! Started pointing out every sub I saw to my wife, she said, "you want one of those Big Toads?" Needless to say, she got one of those sideways type looks! :drama:

Yeah,I saw this and had to have it.I got what I wanted mechanically.Lots bof loaded Subs out there,and that would be nice.But,this is a jump in and go machine and gets the job done.The best thing is it was fleet-maintained and at 96K I could buy with confidence.If I see another,I want to buy it.I figure just to have the drvrteain for an older truck is worth it.

my burb

some pictures of my '76 suburban 1/2 ton, 454/th400, a/c, tow package, power rear window but manual all other windows and some sort of crazy cruise control lookin' thing. i think it is a weirdly optioned truck.
my plans include: flat black paint, red interior, bagged suspension, big rims, built motor and possibly a supercharger. the plan is for this to be my shop truck for the custom cabinet/furniture shop i would like to open in the near future.
