Where in the World is your First Gen? First Gens in Action!
I thought it'd be cool to start a First Gen thread documenting your travels, vacations, or even your truck just working/or sitting....its cool to see how we all use these amazing trucks in so many different ways.....so if your hauling hay, wood, or a big ol' gooseneck loaded down, show us how you use your beast! Maybe its just a show truck, weekend fishin' rig, or a world traveler....show us! Maybe you are a drag racer, or a tractor puller, lets see those beasts! It'd be cool to know where you are, or what you use it for, or just what you love about it....hopefully you will take part.
I use my truck for hauling wood, tools & ladders, and as a daily driver. I take it hunting, fishing, etc....here's me and the fam cutting wood and hiking, fishin' and camping in the Challis National Forest/Frank Church Wilderness of No Return in Idaho....there is a lot of remote country up here not too many people venture into. The ol' 93 gets me there!

I use mine to drag toys around
With the jeep up in PA (the white regular cab in the background is a buddy)
With the bike at the local track (Summit Point, WV)
And rescuing the work truck

bought my 1st gen to tow my boat to new destinations
too bad the boat hasn't seen the water this year...
replaced the fiberglass fuel tanks (ethanol gas ate 'em) and pulled the engine to have it rebuilt, but now it looks like I need a NEW engine and I'm scrounging for the coin
so right now my truck is on light duty, hauling garden tractors and such

Had to help move this past weekend. Besides the small loads she pulls, the ol girl has been a pavement queen since I bought her besides the beach and dirt roads. Mainly because down here we can't buy any rain

This is what mine's been into the past few months...
Haulin wood...
Pullin down trees...
Pullin the tractor...
Clearin brush...
...but that's really just the lazier stuff she's been doing. When I'm really working her, I don't have time to stop and take pictures!
