    Will have all six grandkids here so should be lively for thanksgiving. Slow around here so guess will just work on truck. Love to get it painted but it's expensive. Like to paint it white because of the dust of elevators and dirt roads.
     
    dairyman Thanks this.

    Yeah, ours are white with blue fenders. Could get it done one section at a time. Hood, cab, doors, etc.

    Hadn't really thought about doing it in sections. Might look crappy for a while but it would eventually get done...wonder if dot would stop me more with strange paint job.

    You might need to prepare to blend in with the other drivers of multi colored trucks. Start spending some time in a tanning bed, and if you get stopped answer every question with "no comprende." :biggrin_25525:
     
    wheathauler Thanks this.

    I sure do, the pacific northwest and Canada, with the doubles I can legally gross 110,000 is several states and all throughout Canada, that gives me a net weight of 75-76000 pounds
