    It's really all about the kitchen fellas. I did used to haul cat trees though. Two cat tree manufacturers here in Phoenix, no BS.

    That's an '06. That's another question. Will it go to the communist state.

    But with my APU rebuilt, you can hang meat in Casper again. I'm sitting at a shipper in Phoenix. It's 98. And I'm in my sleeping bag.

    Face it. You love Casper. Casper is a friendly ghost. Do you really want to risk a poltergeist?
    Consider buying a lot with a garage for Casper. It’s a write off. Also an investment.

    I'm getting old though. Finding even my limitless amount of energy does in fact have limits.
    So gonna take what comes.

    I keep checking in to see pictures of you’re new purchase lol. Good luck in your search. Have you talked to dealers about getting an idea on what you can expect to get for Casper on trade?

    Right now, with the market the way it is, he's probably still worth around $40K.

    He's such a good truck.
