Anybody else notice that.....

the paint on the undercarriage of the new trucks is holding up much better than in previous years? My 03 and 07 started rusting almost immediately on the axles but my 08 still looks like new except at the hubs on the ends. It looks much better.....

I also see that you were the Jan 08 TOTM. Yawn. I was TOTM a long time before you....... So long ago, in fact, that I will have to go dust the plaque off to see what month it was.........

HaHa!! Congrats on your pic in the magazine.
Forest City Diesel used to supply the plaques each month but they stopped a while back since times are tight. If you would like, I can take a picture of mine and you can super-impose your month/year on it and then hang a picture of it in your workshop....

It's usually the pumpkins that turn brown and look really bad. I bet they finally just put some better paint on them.
And I will take a pic of my plaque so you can truly feel like you have won the TOTM.......









It is a nice truck BTW.......
