    Yeah so if you pick it up and want any help with stuff just let me know.

    I still drive to Santa Fe every blue moon to get Village Pizza, since ours and Manvel's closed down.
    Did Red Cap close? It looked closed the last two times I've driven by. They had the best burgers.

    I don’t think that’s paint. Looks burned? Whatever it is, something in the cab next to the 3rd brake light also.

    Nasty beaches is accurate. Also the subpar Cajun food.

    Guess I shouldn’t have posted asking questions about this truck, was going to look at it today but the sales guy said after a month of no inquiries he had 4 calls over the weekend and a deposit on it today…. You live and learn, smh. I won’t ask any questions on the next gem I find until I lay hands on it lol.

    Yeah, I definitely wouldn't have sat on that one. I would've had a deposit on it STAT. That was a pretty damn solid truck, I was under the impression you were already on your way to look at it. Super rare color.

    Feel free to PM if you need some discretion on the next find. I've done this for a couple other members who were maybe a bit paranoid about someone else grabbing their killer find.

    Saw what looks like a pretty nicely optioned V8/4WD Limited in metallic green, can't see frame, but the price point at $8k is nice. Probably too far for you to drive though. It was bought within a few miles of where it’s being sold based on vintage dealer sticker. Seller has garbage ratings tho. Looks like they have a stepside AC also.
