Ooohh, nice engine bay! Good work on the bumper too.

Had to go and pick up a stray calf of ours that got penned up a few pastures down this morning. Decided to take Ole Red for a lil run. Looked so good under the trailer I had to snap a pic.

Wow that trailer has a really high hitch on it! I worry about ours hitting the bed of my truck ever since I put the 35"s on my truck. lol

KD93

Boy that's a fine looking truck Blake. My offer still stands to look after her while you're out in Tx working. The trailer is kind of overkill for one calf though, eh?

Blake Clark

Thanks guys.

KD yeah, that trailer is a bit overkill but was the only one at the house at the time. Wish I had a smaller one actually. Was a pretty tight squeeze to get to the pens.

Well it pretty yet, but I'm still working on it. The main thing is it's drivable now. Still need rear brakes and to fix a few leaks, but for sitting in a yard for 3 1/2 years it's not too bad. Only has 145,000mi on it so far and I paid $2000 and got a spare motor in the deal

SORTIE

well, I bought my 1st-gen to tow and I finally assembled all of the ingredients

5,000# boat
1,000# trailer
6,000# 1st-gen

truck performed beautifully, pulling easily in 5th gear and accelerating up hills

very glad I own a 1st-gen!

That's a really nice lookin truck there Sortie!

Nice looking truck AND boat.

I'll bet she pulls just fine. Mine weighs in at a thousand or so less than yours and my truck runs better pulling it than not.

SORTIE

thx, here's another pic of the rig...and now you know how I got my handle on DTR

Subliminal, I've got about 1,000# of gear in my bed, plus the boat & trailer...truck rides real nice like that!

boy would I like to re-power my boat with diesel...I am so done with gas now that E15 has been pushed through

Subliminal

Well then you might have a couple thousand pounds on me, now that I think of it! My boat and trailer are a little under 4k loaded up, I believe.

SORTIE

now that's a sharp-looking truck, Sub

never seen that color, it is SWEET

good-looking rig all around...you run that boat in sweetwater I presume...mine runs in the brine - note the marine growth

Subliminal

Ha, yeah I just picked up the boat at the beginning of this past summer. Only drove it in the Delaware between Trenton and Philly.

Don"t think that i have my truck on here yet. does not look like much but it runs good. the moter is looking at a new home in a w350 club cab once i get the d100 out of the garage for paint.

I<3Twins

could you take some photos with them flipped out? i've been thinking of putting those mirrors on my first gen and haven't decided if i like them or not.
thanks- grant
