    Sorry to read about you troubles. If it’s any consolation it’s making my choice to convert to a good old Chevy 350 seem better, lol. Keep posting though, even if it’s frustrating sometimes. We all love reading about others builds! There’s just so many details to learn about these trucks!

    ...and you might mention your best buddy from elementary school is a rather successful attorney.

    Important to the world relative to world peace or ending cancer? Not really. Important to you because getting what you pay for is expected and reasonable? Quite important and deserving of no apologies on your part.

    Hearing about this is important to me so I can steer clear of this clown show. I also think it's important to publicize practices like these-- the court of public opinion, if you will.

    Yeah, I would like some cheese with my whine. haha.
    My wife used to hate my truck. As I've done more work on it and made it sound better, ride (a little) better and comfy seats... She likes it now. Not love, just like.
    We'll take it on local runs or garage sales and it gets a lot of attention. She gets to use her Parade Wave.

    Here’s another:



    Shorter walk (that’s a lake bed about 6 mi from Glendo, WY, with the old US 87 roadbed I strayed off of in the immediate background), cheaper tow than yours ($2200?? Holy house cats!!), but I totally understand the predicament.

    Good to hear that you have finally been able to get it up and running! Have fun at the parade. I find 2 gear low range is about the perfect speed for a parade so you don't have to use the clutch too much.
