    The only really ticky tack thing I saw was wiper fluid spraying away from truck.

    I've got one that does that, too.

    And the upside down windshield. If it fits, it fits.

    Fix that rig

    What is the issue with the dipstick? It doesn't have a full mark on it?

    Is the Ypipe cracked and leaking exhaust under the cab. Yes that is OOS.
    WIndshield crack, could be a warning 15 day fix it.
    Leaking wheel seal, OOS.
    Bad brake shoes could be OOS. Evident of rust jacking.
    You should fix most of that list before you get on the road.

    I thought part of the idea of annuals was to be nit-picky?
