Not only is that technically a 1ST GEN, but it was a CUCV military Chevy with a bombproof drivetrain and I know if I owned one like it I probably couldn't of sold it (especially if it had a manual trans). That was one nice truck.

Haha, well you know what I meant by saying that. Given he had the Cummins engine instead of the factory 6.2 diesel it just made for a truck/drivetrain that would last a looong time.

the 6.2 was a great motor for keeping everything behind the engine together
