    Saw that one when I was browsing a few months ago. Wants WAY too much for it ($150k I think?). I understand there's a big investment there, but it's still a 36 year-old truck. That doesn't magically make it worth the same as something brand new.

    Granted, it would be a much better way to spend $150k, for sure. I'll take it in black metallic with burgundy stripes.

    At the risk of sounding like Casey Kasem....The answer can be found in a song from 1973 by Mel Tillis.

    Also covered by Billy Bob Thornton and The Boxmasters.

    It's the song that was playing on Youtube when I decided to take early retirement from the corporate world and get back in the truck. The Next one was Sturgill Simpson "You Can Have The Crown/ Some Days".

    After that my mind was made up and I had a company name.

    Taking my drug test tomorrow then start watching videos and training on Tuesday. It’ll be a week or two before I’m in a truck with someone then like a month of training.

    Around here the common boot of choice are either White's or Double H. Either way a winner because they're made in USA.
