When I got done reading this, I went outside and visited all my trucks. I am very compassionate about them, because of their history, the lives they have saved, and the people who have made it back home safely because of them. They say the trucks will never love you back. I disagree with this, because if you really know any thing about them, there's much more there than sheet metal and heavy duty parts. What you describe in your post is exactly what seperates all of us from the average car/truck enthusiast. We know and appreciate what it took to get us to the trucks, create them, and keep them running. Thank you for one of the best articles I've ever read, and I am reassured by it that I and my family are doing the right thing by taking care of them (the trucks) and helping those that have them as well. We are trully a different breed in this Power Wagon thing, one I feel much safer in than any Barrett/Jackson multi-million dollar let me show you how much money I have so I can be the envy of my peers and flaunt my cash and get divorced and put my money up my nose and ignore my kids and throw them cash so they go away and not have to work etc. etc. etc. Thanks. Chris....
