[Old Truck Man]

230,000 miles. Firewood season is almost here. I think I will insure it and use it to haul firewood and use when feeding cattle this season. By spring it will not owe me anything. We have a 2005 3/4 ton with a 6.0 and Allison 4 speed 4 wheel drive. Its a reallly nice truck. Too nice to beat it up driving in the woods and drive when they salt the roads. and the 6.0 uses a lot of fuel. I think the 4.8 would be easier on fuel. and the 06 is a extended cab and the bed aint big enough to haul a good load. I can get two large round bales in a long bed Pk and only one in the extended cab. Our farm is down a gravel road. It stays muddy in the winter. our mud has acid in it and will rust vehicles pretty bad.
