Nice! I like to see vehicles doing what they were designed to do and not just collecting dust in a garage or on a trailer. Sounds like you have the right idea- fix what needs it but keep it useable.
Thanks for the support
The miles are low approaching 83,000 . It is a very fit truck
My first thought when I saw it was I need this truck to earn money
I'm in my 50's, so I remember these trucks so I kinda just took it for granted But when I opened the hood and saw a slant
I knew I had to have it , just for MPG alone & that has proven true.
Once I got it home what happened was unexpected The young kids in my town keep saying - - A Gen One , really nice . Many People in my daily travels smile at me & say nice ! Like I was getting fuel today and a woman walked over & said I really love this truck !!
The truck gets attention .
I've scrapped metal for 7 or 8 years & used a variety of trucks & Vans This D 100 is the best . I love this truck . I look forward to using it
It runs rock solid .
It's color is unobtrusive I can park in my yard and it blends well with the trees .It's a real country truck. As you see scrap is kinda ugly
so a truck that does not add to the negative view is important
My objective is to hold the line of it's current condition
I must keep it at least what it is . I'm having fun & that took me by surprise , Naturally I'd like to stumble on another slant auto
like an Aspen I guess I best careful what I think
Here is a picture of my last scrap truck 1998 Dodge 1500 with 318 The
MPG was not good , as a daily driver I could use $300 to $400 fuel per month it needed work but I used as was for many trips to the yard
I had no inspiration to fix or wash this truck just use till it was no more
. My D100 offers higher profits per mile of use . I use my D100 as my 30% daily driver . I recently picked up a nice used Toyota as my 70%
daily (sorry if it offends any one) I generally get American ,
But sometimes A mans gota do what a mans gota do.
So if you wonder is scrapping worth it here's the scoop
Generally each trip to the yard makes $100 $150 depending on metal types The D 100 was put into use April 20 & has earned around $570
it's weight carting & MPG as a package has no equal by far my best truck ever .
