I don't have a picture from '91 when my Father-in-Law bought the Cab and Chassis, but it looked like this - but a 170k miles younger...



Then we put a sleeper and flatbed on it.



And it worked until '98 at which time my father in law passed on...

At which point the truck started to be a toy.


Pictures taken spring '06 when I refreshed the truck by taking the bed and sleeper off - repainting all, redoing the sleeper interior.

So far so good it only has 2500 miles and they have not been easy ones.. the trailer in the pic is a 42ft'r (trailer w/ cargo come in at about 15k) it has been going some interesting places.. lots of ups and down. I go to 4 low for the hold back power. and lock up the TC with the tow haul mode....

I used a Nikon D300 with a 50mm lens. It was taken on a REALLY cold day last Feb., and the clouds were just right.
