97 F-150 with terminal cancer, and a bad exhaust leak. Bought for $350, hauls a shitload of decoys.

Naturally aspirated. The 6.9 IDI's never came with a turbo from the factory. The last year of the 7.3 IDI's they offered it as a option.

It's a auto with the C6 3 speed. That tranny is bullet proof but a speed demon this old diesel isn't :lol:

Never had a shitty car. I had more disposable income when I was 17 than I'll likely ever have again so I paid cash for a slightly used 02 Sierra. Still looks good.

Had some over the decades but the one that really sticks out was an old Chevy Luv. I think it was a 78. It was sold from employee to employee who needed a cheap ride at a place I was working. Paid 400 bucks for it. Paint was shot, rear window had been shot out at a party before I got it and haf a plywood replacement, big azz hole in the passenger floor board and the passenger door window was stuck up. All that and over 200k on the motor and it never skipped a beat. I literally drove it from one end of Texas to the other chasing quail, dove, pheasant, ducks, reddish and trout. Finally sold it to another employee who was in a bad way, for 400.
This is a pic of one similar to the one I had that I pulled off the net.

i enjoy the shit out of it.
i plan on getting a new f 450 soon. but it scares me to spend money for the new ranch when it wont be until next year at earliest i will have stock on it, and wont start earning money from it for 2 years after that.

Need? No...but I'd sure like to have one. The extra space would come in handy compared to my Expedition.

I'm thinking about trips in the future. A dog, and luggage for 3 girls won't leave much space for anything else!

Exhibitions are great. If you don't have a third row seat, let me know and I will put you in touch with "Little Passenger Seats".

We recently sold our Exhibition, it was too big for my wife. Replaced it with a Subaru.

True. You can actually get double digit gas mileage with a suburban
