    Default Total shock what a score!!

    I am still speechless. Back in 1990 I purchased a 1990 Truck 4WD, standard. Kept the truck for 10 years and due to my military transfers, decided to sell. I sold it with just over 100K miles and never had an issue. I always missed that truck. Well fast forward 10 years and I began looking again for another Toy truck. I want the ole reliable 90' and although I found a few in decent shape, they had very high mileage. Avg was 250K miles. Then a miracle, I found this 1990 original owner Toy with 77,000 miles. Absoultely amazing condition. I drove out this weekend to Virginia to buy it. It is actually the same color as the truck I originally had. The owner kept meticulous records of his maintenance and I cannot still believe this is true. I am still on active duty, just completed 36 years in the Navy and still going. Just like these incredible trucks, they just keep going and going. Below are a few pix and also include the photobucket link to show you many more pix. Enjoy...............




    Link to all the pix I took today.

    Good Job Mate! I sold my 1997 in May to buy my current ride... I still miss that old boy!

    Looks like you scored well. Those trucks are virually bullet-proof. Stay safe and points sent for your service.

    Wow! Great find! I know I would have jumped at that truck, too if I had found it. What are your plans for it? Keep it relatively stock and enjoy, or is it a project truck?

    Plans for the truck are to keep it as stock as I can. Over the many years with various vehicles I have spent a considerable amount of money only to find that the end result was not that significant. I just installed a tow hitch this afternoon as I have a small boat. I feel these trucks stock are awesome performers stock. This time, I will not make the mistake and sell it...........................
