There is an Xterra in the picture if you look hard enough. Just thought I'd take a picture of my other truck today after giving it a bath and post it so you guys can see what else I've been driving lately. Half a million miles and still going strong! laugh

Nice. It is certainly bigger than the Xterra. I guess you found a way to stay away from Seattle, huh? Is this why your post count has dropped so much?

I want you to post a pic of the "new truck" parked in your garage. laugh

Yep, I'm gone two weeks or so at a time and I sold my laptop so I don't have an easy time getting online while on the road. Eventually I guess I'll have to get another laptop so I can surf from anywhere! laugh

I might need to make some modifications to the garage before I try parking the Freightliner in there! [LOL]

Chuck,
Pretty swifty there. I bet the ride is nice on that Freightliner.

Now you have your diesel. laugh

Wow Chuck nice to see that you've found a way to make things work out there.

Interesting career change that's for sure.

So when do the mods start? laugh

That thing is SCREAMING for a Propane Injection kit!

I think about a 50lb. tank should do for short bursts. wink

Nah, that truck looks too front heavy; you'll get hang up on a lot of the smaller trails.

Ever considered to use it for something else? like towing perhaps?

Something tells me the Nissan engine isn't going to do much in the Freightliner. laugh
