    Do you run west coast with it? Or will California laws not allow you to operate in that state with a pre-emissions truck? I’m asking because I love the west coast and would like to occasionally run west.
    What is the downside or issue with not having a pre-emissions truck?

    Never been to western half of country.
    Compared to emission trucks, love the simplicity and dependability of my truck.
    Everyone says the new trucks get better mileage. Cant have everything. I drive very modestly. The mileage i give up is the price of having a paid off truck.
    I take pride and a certain amount of pleasure working on the truck. Again, part of owning an older truck.
