Who else loves their old truck that just won’t quit?

I’ve had this truck for years. It’s outdated, shaped like a brick, and doesn’t have the fancy features newer ones do. But no matter what I throw at it, it keeps going. Anyone else have something that just lasts forever?

We Americans wish we could get these kinds of trucks here.

Same here! I’d love to get my hands on one of those. Nice rig .

Why can’t we get them here?

Because they’re not sold here, and we can’t import them until they’re 25 years old.

@Tully
Did you import this yourself?

Yeah, I brought both of them in myself.

That’s awesome. I’ve always wondered how hard it is to do. What year is yours? Is it a diesel?

Thanks for sharing! These trucks are incredible.

They really are. If you take care of them, they’ll last forever. I’ve taken mine to some rough places, and it always pulls through. Age doesn’t matter as much as condition.

@Tully
That’s a solid point. Trucks like these can handle anything.

@Tully
Does your truck have the newer front end? It looks like it’s been updated.

@Tully
How hard was it to swap to that wider front end?

It’s a simple bolt-on swap. Pretty straightforward.

@Tully
Looks great. Are you running a 1HZ engine under the hood?

Yeah, it’s a pristine 1HZ with a turbo and a top-mount intercooler.

@Tully
It looks like it’s 30 years old though.

Actually, the body is from a 2018 model, so it’s not that old.

I hope that’s just sand on it. Otherwise, I’m reporting you for neglect!
