Dave - I too was glad to see you kept her. If you need any help give me a jingle, I'll bring Weyenberg and a few road sodas:metal:

Oh ya there is a plain flying over your head in one of the first pictures:lol::lol:

Are you going to give it a ride adjustment at all? Keep us posted.

That's one slick truck to start with, I will be one who wants to see the finished product.
