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.

Hey nice truck. How and with what did you take your after pic? The quality of that pic is outrageous. It looks like it's straight out of a magazine!

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.


You should see the full resolution version.
