The truck is not a show truck but does still look great and turns heads everywhere it goes. It does need some work but nothing major. The truck has been great to me, I have owned it since April of 2008. I have driven it daily since the day I bought it. It has been use off road but is always maintained and has never let me down.
i have put a lot of time and money into this truck recently and i have now put it back on the road with plates and insurance on it and it also holds a certin sentimental value to me. also a recent trade offer has fell through. so now am really only interested in a trade for a 1999 or newer chevy/gmc truck (1/2 or 3/4 ton with the 5.3 or 6.0) no other trades will be considered, since i have to put a price i will sell for a cash price of $8000 FIRM
