    We are loaded up ready to head up north and ride for the weekend, and hang out with old buddies.

    This is my truck. My winter beater. My toy hauler. My baby. I love this truck. 297k and still runs like a champ! all original. I dont abuse it, but I am not gentle on it either. You can see where all my money goes (well you cant see all my toys in this pic)

    Ill post my wifes ride later, and some of the other toys.

    ANYWAY, happy memorial day. BE SAFE, but dont be sober!

    Well not just that but as chevy truck guy, I've driven and seen many chevy trucks with high mileage and that's something I enjoy because most of the ford asswipes around here think ford lasts longer which they don't around my area. they brag "oh my ford truck is better cause it's still running after 14 years" yet it only has 117k on the odometer. majority of the chevy trucks and vans I've dealt with have well over 300k

    My 95 f150 had over 379k on it when I sold it. Next guy drove it for two years without issue. That being said nice truck.
