It's cool to see a Forest Service truck customized a little in original color. The gov't ordered some unique combinations of options.
I had an '85 Diesel Jimmy that the dealer brought in for Maryland-National Capital Park & Planning Commission that they did not purchase for some reason. Quite a mouthful even when abbreviated, MNCPPC. I bought it from the original owner. Their color is Buckskin Tan and they run GMs.
Base Sierra trim, but diesel gives carpet and sound proofing. Power windows & manual locks. 6.2 diesel/700r4.
