    When did you see the interior? All I saw was a whole lot of pictures of the part of the truck you can't see anyway from where I sit. :dontknow:

    It must have been tough to get those horses harnessed to the wagon.

    Reminds me of my first days trucking. A real tranny, no hood and a stain-resistant, old-school interior. But modern conveniences like USB ports and a flat-screen TV, not to mention big power?

    F' all this, I'm moving to Australia.

    I’ve pondered that but my gun collection isn’t legal there.

    Be careful.......that word can get you banned from most social(ist) media sites these days. May even get you sentenced to a government re education camp!
