These are the last pictures I took of my truck two days ago when I sold it. Did I want to sell it? Not really but it was something I had to do at this point in my life. It never left me stranded or stuck and I have pulled semi trucks to all kinds of vehicles out of some bad weather situations over the last 6 years. Still going strong with 284,000 miles!! I will miss you old friend!! :bawling:

The guy drove an hour to come pick it up and had a damn nice hydraulic lift trailer. He told me that he has a 1994 ranger and beat the hell out of it and even put it on it's side once hunting and chasing coyotes in fields. I asked him if he was going to trash my truck chasing coyotes and he said no, he was going to put a new engine in it and it would be his daily driver.I was revealed to say the least!! :icon_thumby:

FAREWELL

That's a shitty feeling. A few years ago I sold a 70' Boss 302 and watched it drive away. The feeling didn't really sink in until I heard the guy peel out down the street from my house and I heard the roar of that engine from afar...

I seriously considered calling the guy and telling him some bullshit story about a cracked block or something in order to get the car back. My girlfriend at the time was terrified of that car, fast forward to now - I still miss the car and barely remember her name.
