The thing that sucks is that the Dodge Ram and my whole Twister movie replica project is what got me through my dad's diagnosis and passing (and the robbery two weeks after he passed... And my relationship falling apart) and the Gran Torino is my dream car.

Everything is still up in the air, so we'll see.The Gran Torino is rare, and the Twister truck is my childhood dream project. Gran Torino needs a full resto, new roof metal, floorboards, repaint, and the truck needs repaint and interior work.

I would have to say - I'd rather keep the Gran Torino, to have both Cool Car and Cool Truck combo.

And thank you for all the help, everyone - these trucks were my dads passion, and the GMC being his first truck is the one I want back. But... If it's changed a LOT since we sold it, in major ways, I'll let it stay in the past and in my heart.
