I might be a truck addict :doh:

4 Deuces plus a few other MV's, little time, little money.
A new Steel Soldiers member from Michigan was looking for a truck,
so we worked out a trade, I spent the day getting the truck ready for him to pick it up tomorow (Sunday).
Dangit! It's hard to let it go! aua

Here it is, still need to put the troopseats in.

I sold my first truck to Bryan 70546 and now he's addicted. "They call me the pusher" :twisted:

It was hard to let go since it was one of the best condition trucks I've seen, but my only consolation is that I still own 5 MVs. :grin:

Last week, I had the same initial feeling.

I sold a truck that has been a great running and driving truck(my first choice truck for the last 2 years). I kinda felt lost afterwards and wondered why I really let it go. I have talked to the new owner a few times since he bought it and I can see how happy he is and how much fun it is to him. I actually get satisfaction from that. I'm glad I sold it(still miss it some though).

Same thing with my old backhoe(sold last fall). Today on a Sunday drive(wife driving) in the M1008, we took the road where I delivered it last fall. To my surprise, there it was running and doing it's thing! The new owner gave me a smile and a wave. It made me feel good to know he is enjoying it, like I did.

Sometimes, you can let things go, and you can still get satisfaction from them.

Thanks Bob!! We made it home with no issues. I managed not to run into any busloads ful of nuns or puppies...

It cruised real nice on I-75, traffic was light so people weren't even annoyed with my speed.

Well, she's on down the road with her new owner. :sad:
Pic as they are ready to leave on the 150 mile ride home.
Hope it treats you well Jason, enjoy it!
Take a deep breath Bob, it's going to a good home, and this might be a blessing in disguise; now you'll have room for more Dodge trucks!
