She looks good in that white stuff, really stands out. Here in Florida, that snow in the cab is just rain blowing in the open spots. Welcome aboard & enjoy your new truck. Warmer weather is on the way....in a few months in your case.

ya it runs good I wish it had the whistler you cant really hear the d turbo .but its got a hard top heater and drop side bed so I was happy with it. I figured It would be easier to change the turbo in the future rather than the other stuff.

Kohl,
Welcome from Kentucky, nice truck, they always look good in the snow, we just got our first really big snow today. Put a piece of cardboard in front of the radiator, it will warm up the cab a little more.

Ya it's not in to bad a shape needs some work. The gate is pretty beat up. Blew a front brake hose and someone smashed the passenger step.
I have several drop side tail gates in a storage trailer, they were NOS units. PM if interested.
